Can someone help me with this annoying problem ?? Both my RE's weep/leak fuel from the bottom of the air trumpet intake by the carby as Pic's??? I've started plugging the fuel line thinking it was seeping by via the petrol tap and flooding even though I've replace the rubber seal in the taps. Only then If I plug the fuel line and then run the carby out of fuel no probs. I keep the bikes in a room attached to the house and the wife doesn't like the bikes aftershave at the moment Attachments:

Mine did the same. It was the check valve.

To begin with I cleaned it, but later I bought a used and better one from Rotary Recycle.

Mine did exactly the same thing on my A model, I stripped the carb removed all the jets except the fixed one and cleaned everything, installed a carb kit from RR then reset the throttle cables and the problem dissapeared.

I know I have to strip the carby down at some stage soon, It's just a mental battle at the moment as I've only just got it together and registered and on the road and it's finished in my mind. Hmmmm, Maybe after the bike show this weekend I'll get stuck into it Thanks for the tips
