Default MODS please delete.

Got it fixed, Please delete.


Hey Fellas, Just got my tins back from paint and threw everything together this afternoon.

Bike is leaking gas bad from quick release, Is there an O-Ring that goes on the tip of the plug or is in internal?

Any tips on doing this without removing the tank again? I searched mixed results.

Thanks!!!

I pulled out the line again and put some motor oil around it then reinstalled. Seems to be all good now. Hasn't leaked and no gas smell when riding.
