New York, N.Y.—The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Kawasaki has voluntarily recalled off-road motorcycles due to the threat of a gas leak. The CPSC announced the nationwide product recall on February 14, 2014.

The off-road motorcycles were recalled after discovering that between the fuel tank and fuel tap, the fuel has the ability to leak and pose a fire hazard.

“This recall involves model year 2010, 2011 and 2012 KLX110 and KLX110L off-road motorcycles. The motorcycles have a 110 cubic centimeter engine, a green fuel tank, shroud cover and fenders, a black seat and white side covers. ‘Kawasaki’ is on both sides of the shroud cover. Model names and numbers are on both side covers directly beneath the seat. KLX110 models have an automatic clutch, a shift pedal and no clutch lever on the handlebars. The seat height for these models is about 27 inches. KLX110L models have a manual clutch, a shift pedal and a clutch lever on the handlebars. The seat height for these models is about 29 inches,” the CPSC reported.

Consumers are advised to contact a Kawasaki dealer for a free repair.
