(kristie) could do is replace the gas caps. When I asked for the number and name to the manufacturer she gave me the number to the distributor a company called midwest motorcycles- 111 manufacturer dr., Arnold, mo phone 800-325-3914. I originally spoke to a rep ( walter stockman ) and explained the situation to him. He told me he would get back to me with the name of the manufacturer so I could be compensated for the damage. He would not take my calls for three days , I told the secretary I was going to contact the consumer product safety commission if I did not hear back from him. He called the next day and instructed me to send the part back to jireh cycles and have them forward it to him to determine if the part is defective. He refuses to give me any information on the manufacturer, so I can contact them. These gas caps can be a definate fire ball hazard not to mention the potential of property damage.
