NHTSA recall 17V111000
Fuel System, Gasoline · Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA
Details
What's wrong: In the affected motorcycles, engine vibration can cause the fuel tank mounting bracket to contact the fuel tank, which overtime, may result in the tank leaking fuel.
Why it matters: A fuel leak in the presence of a ignition source can increase the risk of a fire.
The fix: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel tank bracket. The fuel tank will be inspected and replaced if necessary. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 9, 2017.
