| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: This is a picture of a failed fuel fitting on my aprilia futura. this failed in normal use. i do not race, haven't modified my motorcycle in any way, and treat it like the fine machine it is. i noticed a gas smell on my way to work one day and thought it was the old car next to me at the stop sign. when i got home later that day i realized it was my bike. when i pulled the tank up i saw a very bad leak coming from the pictured plastic fitting. i since have read several complaints about this fitting on my forum page. they refered me to your site. |
