Just went outside for a fag and noticed a puddle under my cbr.

There is a black rubber pipe just hanging there with petrol dripping out ( I know its petrol because I lit it), could someone tell me if this is the overflow pipe as I have just recently filled it?

That hose is the overflow and it is ore than likely to be the overflow which is causing the puddle, see if it stops once the tank is a bit emptier.

Shocked Shocked Laughing I'd find a different way to see if it is petrol or not, or at least move the bike out the way before setting fire to the puddle of petrol. Laughing
