Owner report 10239792 · 2008-08-26 (August 26, 2008)
I PURCHASED A HONDA MOTORCYCLE 2 MONTH AGO. IT WAS A HONDA AERO SHADOW 750. IT HAD ONLY 38 MILES AT PURCHASE. NOW ABOUT 700. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL FOR 2007 BECAUSE OF A FAULTY DIAPHRAGM IN THE FUEL SHUTOFF VALVE. MY FUEL SHUTOFF VALVE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED HONDA AND THEY WOULD NOT ADDRESS MY COMPLAINT EXCEPT TO SAY IT WAS NOT COVERED. I FEEL THEY SHOULD EXTEND THE CALLBACK TO COVER ALL 750 AERO SHADOW MOTORCYCLES THAT EXHIBIT THAT PROBLEM. IT IS AN EXTREME FIRE HAZARD. RAW GASOLINE DRIPPING ON A HOT ENGINE! *TR
