New Hampshire | Just bought a used 2008 vision. This is my 3rd Victory love the bikes. I have look on the threads and seen that there was a problem with the filler neck, and gas cap. Dose any one know if this is a recall or not. Any help would be appreciated. Love the bike not the smell. Thanks Larry |

San Antonio, TX | There is an upgraded gas cap. I did not need it...yet. It would have been a warranty item at one time but I not sure about that if you bought it used.
Let us know what you find out for the next guy.

Kansas | It is the gas cap. Mine was replaced under warranty. The replacement was changed slightly but closes more securely. |

| I found the recall page and nothing about gas cap. If you go to your dealer and give him you vin number he can look up and see if all recalls were done to the bike.

Pittsburgh, PA | btw not that this helps you in any way. but my 08 vision didnt smell like fuel. Now on my 11 vision i notice when yoy pop open the gas Door there is a Warning message about how to fuel the bike. and they say do NOT let the pump handle rest on the opening of the fuel tank. im guessing alot of people do.... |

Albuquerque, NM | Since you bought the bike used, check the lip on the filler spout. If the original owner hung the gas pump spout on the filler neck, the lip may be bent. Hope it's just the gas cap! |
