Yamaha is recalling certain 2012 XTZ12B/BC (Super Tenere) motorcycles manufactured between June 1, 2011, and August 31, 2011. A fuel pump O-ring may have been installed incorrectly during assembly, causing the O-ring's sealing lip to become pinched and damaged. This defect could allow fuel to leak from around the fuel pump mounted under the fuel tank, creating a fire hazard.
