Fuel/Propulsion System

Filed Apr 26, 2025CT

Suddenly when riding the motorcycle I discovered a massive fuel leak from the gas cap on to the front cylinder head. I immediately pulled over and inspected the gas cap for tightness. I found that the gasoline cap was sufficiently tight and the sealing surface of the o-ring was okay as well. The gasoline appears to be leaking from the center of the cap where it pops out and lets you turn it. I was not able to tighten the cap in a way that would stop fuel from flowing out of it. I can’t see any seals inside the cap and don’t want to inspect and damage it if this would be beneficial for Harley Davidson to inspect. I am able to duplicate the failure every time I tilt the motorcycle side to side.

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.
