Problem: Buell is recalling 1,307 my 2007-2008 blast motorcycles. The fuel tank may experience some local deformation under high-heat conditions that creates contact of the tank with the cylinder head. In some of these cases, the cylinder head rubbing on the fuel tank has created a fuel leak.

Risk: This could result in a crash or fire, which could cause injury or death to the rider.

Fix: Dealers will install a bracket which will prevent the fuel tank from contacting the cylinder head. The recall began on september 11, 2008. Owners may contact buell at 1-414-343-8400.
