Details
What's wrong: The fuel tank drain and breather hose clamps may be installed incorrectly.
Why it matters: This nonconformity may cause the fuel lines to weaken and break. This can result in damage to the motorcycle and a potential hazard to the rider.
The fix: Dealers will replace the fuel filler drain hose, the fuel breather hose, and the hose clamps will be replaced and repositioned free of charge. The recall began on October 22, 2008.
