Fuel hole "flipper" question.

YamahaR6 · 09-05-2009, 10:58 PM

Just checked my fuel tank,

It seems like the fuel flipper broke. I no longer have that flipper in the hole.

Take a look:

The two red I circle indicates that the flip should be there. I might be wrong.

Do you think it will cover by warrenty?

Mine is exactly what you describe.

Can anyone take a pictures "with" the flapper to confirm?
