Recall 1998131

The issue

On certain motorcycles, 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. In the presence of an ignition source, leaked fuel can cause a fire. Correction: A redesigned fuel pump gasket will be installed on affected motorcycles. On TL1000S models, the fuel tank will also be replace with a redesigned fuel tank that incorporates a different tank mounting system.

Description (français)

Il se peut que le joint entre le réservoir de carburant et la plaque de montage de la pompe à carburant perde son étanchéité et permette au carburant de s’écouler. En présence d’une source d’allumage, une fuite de carburant représente un risque d’incendie. Correction : Un nouveau joint d’étanchéité devra être installé sur la pompe à carburant des motocyclettes visées. Sur les modèles TL1000S, on devra installer un réservoir de conception nouvelle qui comporte un système de montage différent.
