Recall 04V-465: 2004–2005 Harley-Davidson Dyna, 2004 Harley-Davidson Dyna Glide and 6 more
HARLEY-DAVIDSON MOTOR COMPANY recall for fuel system, gasoline, reported to NHTSA on Sep 30, 2004, covering about 2,828 vehicles.
The problem
On certain motorcycles, a condition occurs that could allow pressure to build up in the fuel tank. On fuel injected vehicles, this condition could cause fuel to spray out unexpectedly when the fuel cap is removed. On carbureted vehicles, excessive fuel could be transferred to the carburetor, which would eventually allow fuel to drip from the air cleaner.
The risk
These situations could cause serious personal injury or create a fire hazard for persons or property on or near the motorcycle.
The fix
Dealers will test each canister for blockage, then replace as necessary. The recall began november 4, 2004. Owners should contact harley-davidson at 1-414-343-4056.

Customers can also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
