I've read that it is the gas expanding in the tank and venting out due to the hot motor underneath the tank.
Not for sure just something I remember reading on a HD forum.

Make sure your gas cap is in good shape and tight try not to overfill your tank when pumping and check your overflow filter.

Don't rev the engine before you shut it down.
Doing that will leave raw gas in the throttle body.

Is that the number of threads, or the number of responses?
