I OWN A 2001 APRILIA RSV MILLE MOTORCYCLE. THE GAS TANK LEAKS FUEL AND CAUSES A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. IT LEAKS FUEL AT ABOUT A RATE OF 10 DROPS PER MINUTE, WHICH IS ENOUGH TO CREATE A FAIRLY LARGE PUDDLE IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. I KNOW THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM AND HAVE EVEN READ ABOUT IT IN A NATIONAL MOTORCYCLE MAGAZINE, I AM HOPING A RECALL/REPLACEMENT WILL BE PERFORMED. *TR

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
