The fuel hose may not be properly connected to the fuel injector delivery pipe.
💥 The risk
Continued use of the motorcycle CAN result in the fuel hose coming off, creasing the possibility of a fuel leak which could result in a fire or explosion.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the fuel hose connection at the fuel injector and fuel pump and will replace the fuel hose if the joint lock is found to be damaged. The recall began on march 17, 2008. Owners may contact kawasaki at 1-866-802-9381.
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.)
