2005 Victory 8-BALL & 2005 Victory Hammer + 4 more recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motorcycles, some of the fuel supply hose leading from the fuel tank to the fuel rail may be incorrect for use in a pressurized fuel system application.
💥 The risk
Incorrect hoses may leak fuel or crack. Fuel leakage, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the markings on the fuel hose to determine if replacement is required. If necessary, dealers will replace the fuel hose with a new one of the correct material. The recall began on august 1, 2005. Owners may contact victory at 1-763-417-8650.
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.)
