On certain motorcycles, due to a defect in the fuel level indication system, the engine may run out of fuel when the fuel range indicator shows that there are still kilometers remaining, and in some cases before the low fuel warning lamp illuminates. This would result in the engine stalling, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will apply a software update to recalibrate the fuel level indication system.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2014122.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Harley-Davidson Fxsbse, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Harley-Davidson: 145 in the register, and 591 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2014.
