Fatboy carb

I have a 01 Fatboy. I have gas dripping from the hose from the bottom of the carb. It dribbles out. I shut off the petcock every time, let it run till the carb doesn't have gas in it and shuts it self off. Can't imagine how it's dripping gas from there? Ideas?

Could be time for a carb re-build. Looks needle and seat are not sealing.

If you shut the petcock off, and run the carb dry, and the next morning it's dripping, you have a bad petcock and a bad needle and seat.
