24 Months/Unlimited Miles
This motorcycle limited warranty, referred to below as the "H-D Motorcycle Warranty" applies to all persons who purchase a new 2017 or prior-model Harley-Davidson motorcycle in Australia and New Zealand only after 1st January 2017.
Your Consumer Rights
The benefits given to you under this H-D Motorcycle Warranty are additional to, and do not detract from, other rights and remedies that you may have in respect of the motorcycle under Australian and New Zealand laws, including consumer protection laws.
In Australia, our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
In New Zealand, our goods also come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act.
Warranty
This H-D Motorcycle Warranty, is provided by Harley-Davidson, Motor Company, P.O. Box 653, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201, U.S.A, phone: +1 (414) 343-4056, ("Harley-Davidson").
Harley-Davidson warrants for any new 2017 Harley-Davidson motorcycle that an authorised Harley-Davidson dealer will repair or replace without charge any parts found to be defective in factory materials or workmanship under normal use during the warranty period set out below.
Such repair or replacement of parts will be Harley-Davidson's sole obligation and your sole remedy under this H-D Motorcycle Warranty, however you may have other rights under Australian and New Zealand laws, as described above.
Note: Goods presented for repair may be replaced by refurbished goods of the same type rather than being repaired. Refurbished parts may be used to repair goods.
The following terms and conditions apply to this H-D Motorcycle Warranty:
Warranty Period
The duration of this H-D Motorcycle Warranty is twenty-four months, starting from the earlier of:
(a) the date of delivery by an authorised Harley-Davidson dealer to the first retail purchaser; or
(b) the third anniversary of the last day of the model year of the motorcycle (if not sold to a retail purchaser before that date).
Your authorised Harley-Davidson dealer will submit an electronic Sales and Warranty Registration form to initiate your H-D Motorcycle Warranty.
Note: If the motorcycle was used as a demonstrator or company motorcycle, then the warranty period may have started and/or expired prior to the initial retail sale. See an authorised Harley-Davidson dealer for details.
Any unexpired portion of this H-D Motorcycle Warranty will be transferred to subsequent owners, upon the resale of the motorcycle during the warranty period. See the OWNER CONTACT INFORMATION section of the Owner's Manual for information regarding notification of ownership changes.
Obtaining Warranty Service
To obtain warranty service, return your motorcycle at your expense within the warranty period to an authorised dealer. Harley-Davidson's network of authorised dealers is large, and continues to expand. To find current contact information for your nearest authorised dealer, visit our website at www.h-d.com.au.
The authorised Harley-Davidson dealer should be able to provide warranty service during normal business hours and as soon as possible, depending upon the workload of the authorised dealer's service department and the availability of necessary parts
You are responsible for collecting the motorcycle from the authorized dealer once the warranty service has been completed, at your expense.

  1. Which has not been operated or maintained as specified in the Owner's Manual.

  3. Which was not originally manufactured for use or sold in Australia and New Zealand and/or does not comply with Australian and New Zealand homologation requirements.
  4. Which has off-road or competition parts installed to enhance performance, or has unapproved modifications. These modifications may void all or part of your new H-D Motorcycle Warranty. See an authorised Harley-Davidson dealer for details.

  1. Parts and accessories not manufactured by Harley-Davidson, or any damage caused to the motorcycle by the installation of such parts and accessories, even if such parts and accessories are installed on the motorcycle at the date of initial retail purchase.

Important: Read Carefully
  1. Authorised Harley-Davidson dealers are independently owned and operated and may sell non-Harley-Davidson products. Because of this, HARLEY-DAVIDSON IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFETY, QUALITY, OR SUITABILITY OF ANY NON-HARLEY-DAVIDSON PART, ACCESSORY OR DESIGN MODIFICATION WHICH MAY BE SOLD AND/OR INSTALLED BY AUTHORISED HARLEY-DAVIDSON DEALERS OR LABOUR CARRIED OUT BY DEALERS.
  2. This H-D Motorcycle Warranty is a contract between you and Harley-Davidson. It is separate and apart from any warranty you may receive or purchase from an authorised Harley-Davidson dealer. An authorised Harley-Davidson dealer is not authorised to alter, modify, or in any way change the terms and conditions of this H-D Motorcycle Warranty.
Any warranty work or parts replacement authorised by Harley-Davidson will not preclude Harley-Davidson from later relying on any exclusion where Harley-Davidson later becomes aware that an exclusion applied or the warranty claim did not otherwise comply with the terms of this H-D Motorcycle Warranty.
