## What is wrong

On certain motorcycles, the fuel tank bleed hose may have been pinched during assembly.  This could impair the bleeding function, which could result in a deformation of the fuel tank.  This deformation could come into contact with the steering lock mechanism thus having the potential of locking the steering.  Correction: Dealers will inspect the flow of air through the bleed hose.  In the event of blockage, the fuel tank will be removed and the hose will be rerouted.
