Geneseo, N.Y.— A major lawsuit against motorcycle giant Harley-Davidson has been settled following a legal battle that lasted four years.
A Livingston County jury Tuesday awarded $120 million each to Harold Morris of Caledonia and the family of his late girlfriend, Pamela SinClair.
SinClair was killed and Morris was seriously hurt when the pair crashed while riding a Harley bike in Hamlin Township, Pennsylvania in June 2020, according to court paperwork. The lawsuit claimed the bike had a defective traction-control system and malfunctioned, causing the crash.
That control system was mentioned in a 2019 safety recall notice for certain Harley-Davidson models, including the one owned by Morris and SinClair, according to court paperwork. The pair then sent the bike to Harley-Davidson, which cleared the vehicle after fixing some issues with its brake system, but did not complete a test drive.
