A friend of mine's bike was knocked over a couple of weeks ago. We have replaced a broken clutch lever, but the tank has been damaged.
I think it's ok, but I thought we could top the tank up and lean it over to see if it's leaking, but are there any better ways of checking this?

Wet the area with soapy water, plug any vents, blow into the tank. If you see bubbles, it's got a hole
