Recalls
2 campaigns cover the Blast.
BUELL IS RECALLING 1,307 MY 2007-2008 BLAST MOTORCYCLES. THE FUEL TANK MAY EXPERIENCE SOME LOCAL DEFORMATION UNDER HIGH-HEAT CONDITIONS THAT CREATES CONTACT OF THE TANK WITH THE CYLINDER HEAD. IN SOME OF THESE CASES, THE CYLINDER HEAD RUBBING ON THE FUEL TANK HAS CREATED A FUEL LEAK.
ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES, THE VALVE WHICH WAS DESIGNED TO ALLOW AIR TO REPLACE FUEL IN THE TANK DURING OPERATION COULD MALFUNCTION THEREBY STARVING THE ENGINE FOR FUEL.
