2009 Harley-davidson VRSCF Fuel Propulsion System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1332361
Internal NHTSA #	10924479
Manufacurer	Harley-Davidson Motor Company
Brand	HARLEY-DAVIDSON
Model	VRSCF
Model Year	2009
File date	22/08/14
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The fuel sensor has failed twice, the first time causing me to run out of gas while on a desert highway (over 100f outside). Fortunately there was no-one behind me that might have hit me from sudden deceleration. After the first incident, i replaced the sensor with the same part number from harley davidson. Oddly, the same part number is a different configuration that the original (indicative of a design issue being corrected on-the-sly). The second fuel sensor worked well for about 1 year, then it too failed. Because i was aware of the problem (many, many similar stories on the v-rod on-line forum) i did not run out of fuel. Running out of fuel on a fuel injected vehicle can cause engine damage. It is also dangerous because of the rapid deceleration that occurs on motorcycles (engine braking) without the warning drivers expect of a brake light.
