I did some maintenance the other and took my tank off- however it fell over upside down! Fuel pissed out of the filler cap, not just a few drops.
This isnt supposed to happen is it- i mean a tank of fuel isnt meant to be upside down and all that, but if i were to drop the bike i dont want fuel coming out all over the place!
Ive just bought the bike and havent ridden it yet (got to sort a couple of other things first).
I took the filler cap off, 6 allen bolts and a security screw, and the rubber underneath seems intact. Is there anything missing under the rubber perhaps?
There was another small hole that could have a screw screwed into it (not the security srew hole), but there was nothing screwed into it. Is this normal?

Help!

Could be just fuel coming out of the overflow pipe

I'd be very impressed if fuel came out the overflow me a tank that was upside down. Some kind of special anti gravity fuel ?
I doubt there is much to worry about its prob just fuel finding its way out via the breather.

Nearly forgot. . .
The other hole you can see is more than likely the fuel cap recess drain

Thanks for the reply!
Just being paranoid- im not gonna get fuel leaking if i fling it round the bends am i? Especially if ive got a full tank!

I'm sure it will be fine.....................dont go flinging it into the secenery or you will have more than a leaking cap to worry about
