Problem: Yamaha is recalling certain model year 2009-2012 xvs95/ct (v star 950/v star 950 tourer) motorcycles, manufactured from october 2008 through august 2011, and model year 2007 xvs1300/ct (v star 1300/v star tourer) motorcycles, manufactured from august 2006 through march 2007. there may not be a proper seal between the fuel pipes for the fuel injectors and the fuel hose that connects them due to an improperly molded fuel hose.
Risk: Over time, pressurized fuel can begin leaking at the hose connection points, which could result in a fire hazard.
Fix: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel delivery pipe free of charge. the safety recall began on november 21, 2011. owners may contact yamaha at 1-800-962-7926.
