Superglide 1998

Hello guys. Im new here from sweden. Im wondering is it normal to have slightly smell of gas in the oil when the bike have been laying there for some days.? The smell disapears when i drive The motor warm. The bike runs good and everything. Havet notice any change of the oil either. Stays on the normal level. Did put new oil and filter in september when i put The bike for wintersleep.

Perfectly normal. The gas tank has a vent in it to relieve pressure do to thermal expansion and to allow flow.
It's the bikes way of telling you to go for a ride
