Fuel Fumes...

Does anyone else have a problem with fumes? When I park my Hawk in the garage after a ride the garage will start to smell like gasoline after a while.

I've never seen any signs of leakage.

Thanks,

Greg

i dont have the issue with the garage smelling like fuel but when i ride i can sometimes smell a hint of fuel, i have no leakage nor anything. sometimes my buddies around me can smell it,

i think its a carburetor thing my 81 k5 is like that to you can kinda smell fuel fumes in the engine bay after driving

who knows i could b wrong if there is something that causes this id like to know aswel
