If the stock pet is working properly, it is actuated by engine vacuum...... the ON, and RESERVE, positions should shut off fuel flow when the engine isn't running... PRIME, is used only when you have occasion for the float bowl to be empty...(such as, having run out of gas, or having worked on the carb,... or if it's sat a very long time)... So,.. generally... ride, and park, in the ON position...
.. but,... if you had done that,... you wouldn't know that you have a float problem.. Now you know... Either it was a rare, one time thing,.. or you have sticking floats, or a worn out float needle....
You need to find out why... If you run, as you should, in the ON position,... the floats may stick or leak and you'll not notice... (or, you may notice odd carb problems while running)... If you run in PRIME,... you'll find out, but, you'll risk this happening again... It's quite a pickle to be in...
This is why,.. I like the manual Raptor petcock... It behaves like your old RE pet... ON,OFF,RESERVE...
