The hazard
On certain motorcycles, the fuel level sensor float arm holder could deform and allow the arm to separate from the fuel level sensor body. If the float arm separates from the sensor body, the fuel meter would provide inaccurate information. In some cases the separated metal float arm could contact both the positive and negative terminals at the base of the fuel pump, causing a short that results in a blown (fuel injection, ignition or main) fuse. Either symptom could result in an engine stall, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel level sensor assembly.
