Hi All,

Bought a 2006 Ybr yesterday, and it has a fuel leak from near the fuel tank ( shocker ) but it seems to be leaking constantly...

It does get worse if the bike is running but I have no mechanical know how at all. Is it a disaster? Does anyone have any suggestions of where to look.

It seems to be leaking where the bolts meet the tank, then its running down the underside of the tank and dripping onto the engine and gathering near the battery. It is leaking constantly now and i have taken the side fairings off and they were full of petrol.

i will grab a torch and see what i can see

I dont know if you guys can make out the stream of petrol coming from what looks like a hole in the fuel tank!!

Any suggestions on the best , quickest and cheapest way to fix this?

Mate seriously If you don't have a clue what your doing, get it into a Garage that does, leaking petrol all over the roads aint good.
