About two months ago, my husband was cleaning my bike when he noticed some discoloration on the engine. Upon investigation, he found that the fuel valve on the gas tank was dripping gasoline. He contacted honda motorcycle customer service twice and both times was told my motorcycle was not included in the recall and that the recall was vehicle identification number (vin) specific. Due to the obvious safety concerns, i went ahead and ordered a new oem part on-line and paid for it. My husband spent two hours this weekend replacing the defective part. I consider leaking gasoline onto a hot engine a major safety concern. I also feel a recall for such an issue should not be vin specific. If this leak had not been caught when it was, it could have easily erupted into a full blown fire seriously injuring me or my husband as well as any innocent bystanders. I ask that someone please contact the honda corporation and see if they will expand their recall.
