Recall 2017219

The issue

On certain motorcycles, during operation or while sitting still, it is possible that fuel can seep or leak out of the fuel filler cap area of the fuel tank. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel tank filler neck insert with one that has an improved seal along with a new seal for the fuel level sensor. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop riding their motorcycle until the defect has been repaired
