The 2003 Victory Vegas has 3 recalls, all involving the fuel tank and each carrying a risk of fuel leaking or spraying near potential ignition sources, which can result in a fire.
Two of the recalls involve the brazed vent tube joint at the bottom right of the fuel tank, where the surrounding material can fatigue and crack, allowing fuel to leak onto hot engine components or other ignition sources. The third involves a blocked vent line inside the tank that can cause pressurized fuel to spray out when the fuel cap is opened.
