The FJ1200 was produced in three main successive versions (1TX, 3CV and 3XW) each updated version benefiting from improvements to bodywork, front and rear suspension components, and the addition of an optional ABS-equipped version (FJ1200A) from 1991 until 1996

DEFECT #1 - FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS


Posted on: 1986-07-18
Description
The distance between the fuel cock and carburetor may be insufficient to allow proper clearance for the outlet fuel line causing it to chafe.  Consequence of defect: continued chafing could cause the fuel line to fail, allowing gasoline to leak which may result in a fire if a source of ignition is present.

Consequence


Corrective Action
Install modified fuel cock that allows additional fuel hose clearance.

Notes
System: fuel.  Vehicle description: motorcycles.

Install additional guide on the brake hose holder to prevent excess brake hose travel.  Also, install a modified passenger footpeg.
