 My motorcycle has a plastic tank that expanded and caused the tank to spill and it deformed too impeding normal steering. this is the second time this happens!!! they are replacing (now they are saying that my aftermarket exhaust could be an issue but it is not. i have not modified the bike in any way that would affect the tank and the fuel pump or the fuel flange) these tanks with the same kind!!! i am worried this bike is not safe.

 1. motorcycle is parked in my garage with about 800 miles on the odometer and in as-new condition. 2. fuel began leaking from around the fuel pump flange at the base of the tank. this drip is next to an exhaust header pipe onto the rear of the engine block. upon investigation it became clear that the plastic tank has deformed (warped) around the flange, opening a gap for fuel to drip rapidly from the tank.
