On certain motorcycles, the fuel tank valve assembly could become plugged. Under certain conditions this could cause the carburetor to overflow fuel which could result in a fire. This condition could also prevent sufficient fuel flow, which may cause the engine to misfire or stall. Either of these conditions could result in personal injury. In addition, certain M2 Cyclone models may have a component that could restrict airflow into the float bowl of the carburetor. This could cause the carburetor to overflow fuel which could result in a fire. This could also prevent sufficient fuel flow which may cause engine misfire or stalling. Correction: Fuel tank vent valve assembly will be replaced. M2 Cyclone models will have the float bowl assembly inspected for proper venting and have the condition corrected if necessary.
