Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Honda motorcycles from 2006 and 2007 are subject to a recall due to a defect in the fuel control valve diaphragm that may become permeable, allowing gasoline to leak. The affected models are the CBF500 and CBF600 (both 2006, made in Italy), the VT750C (2007, made in Japan), and the VTX1300 (2007, made in the USA). Specific units are identified by chassis number ranges provided in the recall notice.
The defective diaphragm can cause gasoline to leak through its vent, creating a fire hazard. Honda has voluntarily initiated corrective action to address this safety issue. The record does not specify what remedy an affected consumer should pursue.
