Details
What's wrong: The gasket between the fuel tank and the fuel pump mounting plate can lose its ability to provide a tight seal, allowing fuel to drip from the gasket.
Why it matters: In the presence of an ignition source, fuel leakage can result in a fire.
The fix: Dealers will install a redesigned fuel pump gasket on these motorcycles.
