SEVERE FUEL LEAK COMING FROM CARBURETORS AFTER ONLY 13,000 MILES ON VEHICLE. IT WILL EITHER START TO LEAK IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING THE MOTORCYCLE, OR IT WILL START LEAKING AT SOME POINT AFTER RIDING IS ALREADY UNDER WAY. EITHER WAY, FUEL WILL CONTINUOUSLY LEAK ONTO THE ENTIRE ENGINE. THIS RUNS A RISK OF CAUSING A FIRE FROM THE HOT ENGINE WHILE RUNNING. COST OF REPAIR IS SUBSTANTIAL WITH AN AVERAGE COST OF $1,200 OR MORE. THAT'S IF YOU CAN FIND A MECHANIC THAT CAN REPAIR IT OR IS WILLING TO ATTEMPT IT BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULT, COMPLICATED, AND COST/WORTH NATURE.

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.
