The problem
On certain motorcycles, the outlet port of the fuel pump may dislodge from the pressure regulator housing, reducing fuel pressure at the fuel rail.
The risk
This can cause the engine to stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will rework the fuel pumps. Owner notification began april 11, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact victory at 1-763-417-8650.
