Hey Guys,

I put my GSA down on it's left side with a full tank of fuel. Nothing serious, just some very minor scratches on the crash bar.

But now there is a strong smell of petrol. Is the canister in/on the left side of the tank one of those charcoal vapour filters?? If so I am guessing that it is now full of fuel....

The other thing that I have noticed is that on start up the bike smokes, but it's from the exhaust header pipe.... Looks like something has dripped on the pipe, and coincidentally it's under the left side of the tank... Yet more evidence of the "charcoal canister" filled with fuel???? This one has me puzzled...

Any ideas?
