Harley's Clutch Recal

[Ray55]

Would someone please explain to me how replacing the clutch slave cylinder because of leakage around the piston seal will stop oil migration from the transmission into the primary case? My triglide is the first Harley that I have owned but I think that I have the mechanical understanding to see how it works. Is this HD way of correcting a problem that they won't readily admit too?

Don't think it will. The clutch recall is to prevent the clutch master cylinder from getting low on fluid, introducing air into the hydraulic line and preventing the clutch from disengaging. Nothing to do with the oil migration problem as far as I know.

I agree with ultrafxr. If you look a few threads down on the list, you will see a thread that covers the clutch recall.
