So, there was clearly fuel leaking from the bike as it was just sitting. I took the carbs off to see if the floats are not working properly. 2 things: 1) there was a lot fuel just sitting in the head (see pics), and 2) there was a steady flow of fuel from the line (from tank) after removing them from the carbs.
1) Clearly this shouldn’t be happening right? Is it related to the fuel pressure from the pump, or are the floats/valves not working on the left side?
2) Why would there be fuel flowing fairly steadily (normally just a few drips from fuel in the lines then stop)? The tank is not full (the level is well below the carb level). Not a big issue but it still baffled me and made me wonder if it contributed to the overall mystery…
