Owner report 10380089 · 2011-02-03 (February 3, 2011)
1. MOTORCYCLE IS PARKED IN MY GARAGE WITH ABOUT 800 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AND IN AS-NEW CONDITION. 2. FUEL BEGAN LEAKING FROM AROUND THE FUEL PUMP FLANGE AT THE BASE OF THE TANK. THIS DRIP IS NEXT TO AN EXHAUST HEADER PIPE ONTO THE REAR OF THE ENGINE BLOCK. UPON INVESTIGATION IT BECAME CLEAR THAT THE PLASTIC TANK HAS DEFORMED (WARPED) AROUND THE FLANGE, OPENING A GAP FOR FUEL TO DRIP RAPIDLY FROM THE TANK. *TR

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2009: 2 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2009 | 0 | 1 | 2 |
Date coverage across each selected cohort
| Year | Incident dates used | Filing date fallbacks | Excluded dates |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2009 | 3 | 0 | 0 |
Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
