78 units affected
On certain motorcycles, the threaded inserts that affix the internal overflow pipe to the fuel tank could leak due to an irregularity in the coating process. This could result in a fuel leak, which in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will inspect the threaded inserts for leaks, and repair if necessary.
