Default M8 Fuel pump issue

2018 Fuel pump regulator issue. Monday found a saucer size puddle of fuel under my bike. It would pour while running. Down the backbone straight onto my belt.
HD tech had to call the mothership. They stated they have seen a “few” handfuls of this. Had tech reindex the regulator 180*.
Had 1600 miles.

I had the same issue with my 2018 Lowrider. It would drip raw fuel from the belt area when running. I could smell gas when stopped at lights. The dealer replaced my fuel pump and I haven't had the issue since.
