Description
The recall concerns model year 2009 motorcycles, with VIN numbers from VG5RE061000000140 (start of production) to VG5RE061000020590.
Risk
The product poses a risk of fire because environmental stress crack may occur on the fuel pump cover due to bad matching between fuel pump cover material with fuel pump assembling lubricant and constant tensile stress. In the worst cases, complete fuel pump cover separation may happen, thus reducing sealing performance between the fuel tank and the fuel pump and causing fuel leakage.
