Harley-Davidson is recalling more than 65,000 motorcycles because of a potentially faulty part that could increase the risk of a crash.
A fastener that secures the rear shock absorber on the motorcycles may break, potentially causing damage to the rear tire and a loss of tire pressure, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report.
"A loss of tire pressure can lead to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash," the report said.
