Certain motorcycles may have been produced with defective fuel shut-off valves. The functionality of the ON position and the RESERVE position of the valve may have been reversed. Consequently, when the control handle of the valve is set in the ON position the valve actually selects the RESERVE position fuel flow path. If a bike operated with the valve in the ON position begins to run out of fuel, the expected fuel reserve will not be available. If this occurs it could create a quit while riding situation which could lead to a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel valve.
A failure of this component (fuel system) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
