    Hi all,

    I have just bought a Speed Triple, and have noticed that its leaking petrol through one of the overflow pipes... I'm not sure if there is a pipe from the injectors and one from the tank? but i noticed it 2 days ago when there was no where near a full tank and again today. I filled up this morning but have rode a good 30 miles since and there are still some droplets coming out... Anyone have any ideas why its doing it?

    Thanks,

    Sorry, pal I've not seen or even heard of this before. Is it possible that the air admittance valve in the petrol cap is blocked and pressure is building up with the heat? Glad to see you're managing to start threads now. Welcome to the site.
