On certain motorcycles, cracks could develop in the fuel pump and/or auxiliary fuel pump flange (if equipped).

Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could lead to a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the fuel pump flange(s) and install a reinforcing ring or replace the fuel pump(s), as necessary.
Powertrain#2013369October 29, 2013
