    I bought this motorcycle brand new on [XXX]. Within the first couple of hours of riding I noticed that the motorcycle was crooked, in other words the front and rear tires and windshield etc did not appear to line up. After riding about 40 mi I was uncomfortable with a motorcycle that was not tracking straight and worried it might be dangerous. I took it back to the dealer. It has been there over a week. They confirmed that a manufacturing defect in the front frame is causing the motorcycle to be crooked. I investigated forums for this motorcycle and found out this is a known problem. I think it is unsafe that Harley-Davidson and their dealers are continuing to sell a motorcycle with such a severe problem as a mis-welded front frame assembly. I hope the NHTSA prompts Harley to do the right thing recall these motorcycles and properly repair them. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
