2000 Honda CBR929RR recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: motorcycles. An improper service procedure that may be used during routine maintenance CAN damage a pressurized fuel hose. Lifting the front of the fuel tank beyond a certain point CAN stress and damage the hose. The internally damaged hose could eventually crack, resulting in a high-pressure fuel leak.
💥 The risk
Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel hose with a longer fuel hose.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
