Gasoline Leak from Top of Engine
08/07/19 at 18:20:14

So I bought the bike a few weeks ago and have been working on it since. I just got it to be ride-able recently. I found that after it warms up and does a few miles gas is coming from the top. I cant tell exactly where its coming from because it evaporates too quickly.

The bike is a 2001 with 2800 miles on it and sat for at least two years before I got my hands on it. It also has not been state inspected since 2005, so I really don't know how long its been sitting.

If anyone has any experience with this kinda issue any help would be greatly appreciated.
