Ran my bike a couple of days ago for a couple hours. Bike is 1986 R80; no suffix. All normal. Filled up gas
tank enroute my home and thereafter it was just a couple miles to home. Parked bike in garage and next day
found gas weeping from the vent (apparently) at the front top of the engine. Has anyone experienced this before?
Admittedly tank was quite full, but have done same before and no issues. Garage is large metal-roofed building
that does get fairly hot inside. Could the gas merely be expanding and the tank venting normal? I haven't pulled
the tank recently. I did, however, update all the mounting grommets and the front rubber deal under the tank. That
has been a few weeks. At the time all was fine. Anybody????????
