Re: Fuel Leak
It looks like it might need new bolts and float bowl gaskets (possibly).
Replace the brass ones for Stainless Steel allen head machine screws and it should be okay. Your best to get them stripped off the bike and have a look, also invest in Plus gas or Wurth Rost spray and a couple bags of stainless steel bolts. Mine did this last year and it takes an hour to sort properly
