Hey guys, I am wondering if anyone has ever experienced fuel coming out of top of carb main air jet? If you how did you fix? I have adjusted float, tried new float valves and no matter what I've tried everything fuel just keeps coming out top of carb -
First time to port dover, this is pretty wild
-
We are coming from london, I think our plan now is to meet closer to port dover and join the ride back more toward kitchener as my dad is in cambridge, hope to see you guys there
-
We are coming from London but could meet you for the ride
-
My woman and I are going down, we could drive we could meet you for the trip

I was able to get petcock out without removing the tank, the trick was to remove the selector(Phillip's screw) pry cover off and remove 2 more Phillip's screws, this makes petcock much smaller and able to slide it out on an angle towards rear tire between swing arm. Thanks everyone who helped me get this figured out.
-
Thanks saddle, I am to the point where I've got to lift tank in order to get petcock out, how would you go about doing this?
-
Thanks Spencer, I will try to tighten up the 2 screws. Do you use a stubby screw driver to get in there or a right angle bit? Seems like it will be tight to get a standard screw driver in there
-
It was indeed the petcock, dripping pretty good there, looks like 10 litres drained out and absorbed into the floor over 3 weeks, oil looked good, bike runs good, but gotta figure out how to replace this petcock now
-
Did you replace yourself? If so what was the difficulty like? Did you have to remove the tank completely?
-
Thanks for all the info guys, I'm wondering if it's the fuel petcock myself, going to storage to look at again now, it did look like the vent overflow line was wet tho which is just in front of rear tire where leak is on ground
-
Stored bike for 3 weeks came back and found a decent puddle of fuel on floor, I had filled before storing and put 30 km on it, turned it on and was almost empty and put 12 litres in it/. There was not 12 litres on floor, could that much fuel have evaporated? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, bikes running good and no signs of leak from ride just from sitting
-
Did you try spraying some wd40 in where you put your key? Might just be seized up from sitting so long hope you can get it to turn over
-
Happy belated birthday, would love to come follow you guys in that neck of the woods one day this summer, I had a nice ride into port stanley in the evening after work and man was it great to see all the bikes out
