Issue ID	1563961
Internal NHTSA #	11207346

Brand	HARLEY-DAVIDSON
Model	FXLR

File date	11/05/19
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Liquid gasoline expels from fuel tank overpressure vent tube, at a rate >5 drops/sec, anytime when the engine is running and the tank is at or below 1/2. Dealer warranty repair, 2nd attempt, solution was to reverse the vent line check valve so the fuel leak outflow stopped but now the fuel tank builds considerable pressure with ambient or other temperature rises leaving the only vent path as the gas cap removal. Video available of both fuel leak and fuel tank pressure relief. The fuel leak issue was first noticed on 07/09/2018; however it was not recognized to be a constant issue as the fuel tank was normally kept between full and 5/8 due to commute pattern. On 04/07/2019 it was noticed again and video of the fuel expelling was captured and sent to dealer along with observation of 1/2 tank or below requirement for the fuel leak to occur. The fuel tank overpressure issue was realized after 05/03/2019 and verified several times since.
