“This relates to a manufacturing defect delivered by Ktm sportmotorcycles na. On product line for model years 2006 and 2007, including my vehicle 06 450 exc, the 1/4-turn gas caps have hazardous and potentially life-threatening faults. To date Ktm has failed to properly address it. Detail of the cap problems: - the cap has 3 locking tabs that mate with the tank. The original cap's neck was too long, preventing a tight seal and leaked badly - Ktm issued new caps with shorter necks, tightening the seal and temporarily fixed the leaking. - the new caps leaked within days or weeks of installation. …”
