Ktm Sx-f: Fuel May Leak

KTM is recalling 495 SX-F, XCF, and EXC-F motorcycles because the fuel pump nut may not seal properly, which could allow fuel to leak. In severe cases, leaking fuel could damage the vehicle or cause a fire. KTM will replace the fuel pump nut and seal if necessary on affected machines.
