TWO JOINTS IN THE FUEL LINE COULD CRACK DUE TO IMPACT AND VIBRATION FROM AGGRESSIVE RIDING. CRACKED JOINTS COULD LEAK FUEL, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A FIRE HAZARD. ALSO, ON VEHICLES WITH ELECTRIC STARTERS, IF THE BATTERY IS OVERFILLED AND THE BREATHER PIPE IS BLOCKED BY SNOW OR OTHER OBSTRUCTION, EXCESS ACID COULD EXIT THE BREATHER PIPE VENTING STRIPS AND COME IN CONTACT WITH THE STARTER RELAY. THIS COULD CAUSE A SHORT CIRCUIT IN THE RELAY AND A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. CORRECTION: A FUEL SYSTEM UPDATE KIT WILL BE INSTALLED AND UNITS EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRIC STARTER WILL HAVE A BATTERY VENT HOSE KIT INSTALLED.
