The 2020 Harley-Davidson FLRT has 2 recalls, the more serious being a traction control software fault that can activate one rear brake without rider input, causing an unexpected change in direction and raising the risk of a crash. There is also a brake light issue where a separate software error can cause the brake lights to illuminate when the rider has not applied the brakes, which may confuse drivers behind the motorcycle.
