Most wires out of ignition switch, inside harness tubing, are exposed & the main wire broke. This resulted in complete vehicle stall during turns. No abrasions or signs of fatigue on outside harness cover. Very unsafe for a motorcycle to stall while cornering.
During normal riding on a vacation trip i stopped to refuel and gas was leaking on the ground.after removing the seat i found what is listed below.about one half gallon of gas leaked on the ground before i was able to use epoxy putty to stop the leak. A hairline crack in the fuel pump/filter assembly "cap" on top of the tank which allows fuel to leak out of the tank and pool under the seat creating a fire/explosion hazard. This is the same problem referred to in nhtsa campaign id number : 04v236000 regarding the cs model.
