Kawasaki Vn1500j1: Fuel Hose May Leak

Kawasaki is recalling 50 VN1500J1 motorcycles because the fuel hose protective sleeve may not adequately protect the hose from rubbing against the fuel pump plate, which could cause the hose to leak. A leaking fuel hose poses a fire risk. The remedy involves replacing the fuel hose with a modified version.
