This is my second rear gasket replacement. I had my bike serviced this week. My bike stalls sometimes and I believe it is due to the oil pump issue associated with HD M8 motors 2017 through 2019. I donât understand whether there is a recall? With so many motorcycles that have had seized motors, blown, gaskets, etc. HD even put out a Service bulletin M1450.
