Title: S2R800 Gas Leak by Right Rearset - HELP HELP
Post by: TitanMonsterS4R on February 16, 2011, 04:16:52 PM
It's finally gettin' warm here in DC and the S2R is being well a Ducati. 

Gased her up and traveled less than 10 minutes home.  Parked her and when I came back outside I noticed she was leaking gas from a small hose located near the right rearset.  Not sure when it came loose from but I've searched with a flashlight to see where the spot might be that I need to reconnect it. No such luck.  Does anyone know where I need to reconnect this rogue hose?

You over filled the tank just a bit and the tank is getting rid of expanded fuel through what used to be the emissions line.

It will stop when it cools.

Ducpainter - thanks for the quick response.  So that hose is supped to just bleed excess gas it's not supposed to be connected to anything?

That hose used to go to the charcoal canister.

I'm sure yours is gone, and the extra gas had to go somewhere.

It will be fine after your ride tomorrow.

If you don't want it to happen again either don't fill quite as full, or fill more miles before you park it.
