Default Gas Leaking ???

Accidently dropped the bike tonite in the garage. No damage to the bike, but after I got it back up on the stand, there was gas leaking on the ground, and it seemed to be about a pint. Is the gas leaking a normal thing, or do I have a loose line or something? Any ideas/fixes - other than don't do that again?

Thanks...

Rabid

Whenever I have dropped my Ultra the gas comes out of the over flow tube. No big trouble.

Rabid,

Don't feel bad - been there, done that on my '05 Ultra.

I had a steady drip and realized that there is like a quick disconnect (chromed) at the base of my tank that popped loose.

PS I essentially lived in the GTA for two years during an equipmentstartup - you don't actually ride around there on a scoot do you????? Them Canadians are crazy drivers man.
