Details
What's wrong: On certain motorcycles, the fuel tank bracket washer and damper do not adequately protect the tank from engine vibration.
Why it matters: Over a period of time, vibration might damage the tank which could result in a fuel leak with the possibility of fire.
The fix: Dealers will replace the fuel tank bracket washer and damper with ones of a new type. Owner notification began July 10,2002.
