Filed Mar 22, 20046,161 milesCO

IMEDIATELY UPON OPENING THE GAS CAP AFTER HAVING RODE THE MOTORCYCLE FOR SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES, SO MUCH PRESSURE HAD BUILT UP IN THE TANK THAT RAW GAS SHOT OUT OF THE TANK. IT WENT AT LEAST 10 FEET HIGH AND COVERED MY BIKE AND THE VEHILE NEXT TO ME WITH RAW FUEL. APPROXIMATELY 1 TO 2 GALLONS OF GAS WHERE RELEASED IN LESS THAN 2 SECONDS. ALTHOUGH IT SCARED ME, WE WERE LUCKY AND NO IGNITION OCCURED. UPON TALKING WITH OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MODEL OF MOTORCYCLES, IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS RELATED TO THE VENT NOT WORKING CORRECTLY AND HAS HAPPENED TO LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE AS WELL.THIS WAS A 2004 YAMAHA FJR1300 WITH APPOXIMATELY 6,000 MILES AND IN OTHERWISE EXCELLENT CONDITION.*AK

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.
