  1. Hey there! I found and joined this forum because I was hoping for some assistance from some more advanced riders who are familiar with my bike specifically. I love riding. But I'm not the most handy when it comes to working on bikes. At least not carb issues. I haven't had this bike for very long, so I'm definitely not as familiar with it as I was with my Shadow or Hayabusa. And even on them, never did a lot of carb work. On to my issue... I pulled the bike out of the garage yesterday to get it geared up for a ride this weekend that I was going to go on with some coworkers. Fired it up and let it idle. It died. Fired it up and let it idle. It died. This was my first concern because through this winter I have started it up every 3-4 days to let it idle to keep fuel cycling and let it warm up and didn't have any idling issues. I fired it up again and throttled slightly to let it warm up. While doing so, I started smelling gas. I let it die and looked around. On the left side of the bike I noticed gas steadily dripping to the concrete. Best I could trace it to was the carb. Couldn't see exactly where it was coming from. I also noticed after a few tests, that it leaked when the bike was running. But seemed to slow down to a stop when the bike was no longer running. I asked a friend today, and he said it sounds like the overflow chamber is leaking due to a stuck float. He recommend shutting up the fuel switch and loosening the screws at the carb to allow the gas to drain. Then proceed to tighten, turn on fuel switch, and test. My next problem is this...I can see 8 screws that could possibly be what he's referring to, but I should only be loosening four I would just have him come over but he's out of town for the next week and we have some perfect riding weather for the next few days! Anyone out there that can assist me as a gearheadnewb? Thanks in advance! Trevor
