2023 fuel tank bubbling

[Paul_h]

Anyone else had this issue I know the older models suffered from it.mines started to bubble almost like solvent pop in the paintwork near the fuel filler

That’s an absolute pain. How old is the bike? J

 

[Paul_h]

Just coming up to 2 years

 

[Ajj]

I've never seen this.
As it's coming up to 2 years old, surely it's a warranty thing?

 

[Paul_h]

I'm hoping so it's in for the oil filter recall soon so I'll get them to to take a look...wasn't sure if anyone else had the same problem

 

[JamieMac]

It is poor manufacturing. Don’t put up with any crap from them… ridiculous!

Has it ever been covered? Wondering about some form of adhesive eating at it.
Overfilled the tank? Petrol can lift the paint....

Just thoughts, I'd certainly try for a replacement if I could.
