Details

What's wrong: Certain motorcycles may have defective front gas tank mount brackets, which could break in service and breach the tank wall possibly causing fuel spillage.

Why it matters: Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire.

The fix: Dealers will repair the tank by replacing the existing front brackets. Any paint affected by the welding process will be refinished. Owner notification began on September 17, 2003. Owners should contact american ironhorse at 1-817-665-2000.
