In the May issue of Motorcycle Consumer News.


Hyosung 2005-2007 GT650 & GV650
Summary: These motorcycles were built with fuel tank gaskets that prevent proper tank ventilation.

Consequence: This could result in vehicle stalling, increasing the risk of a crash and/or fuel leakage which could result in fire.

Remedy: Dealers will modify the existing gas cap gasket. Owners may contact Hyosung at 770-447-5571

Cool, I didn't know if you had been notified yet or not. Glad to help you get hooked up for a "gasket-job"
