Fuel leak?

Hi Guys,

I went for a spin yesterday on the Tuono as the weather was nice. Had a great day out riding about 90 miles, got home, parked the bike and left it to cool down.

When I went out about an hour later to cover the bike up I noticed a leak directly under the 3 rubber tubes that stick out the bottom of the bike. I touched the tubes and there was still a bit of liquid dripping off. Anyway, I had a sniff and it's petrol. I had just filled the bike up about 20 miles earlier, is it just a bit of overflow or something worse?

I'm not much use as a mechanic so any thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers.
 
Those hoses are breather and overflow pipes.My guess is,the fuel has expanded in the heat,(it was very warm yesterday),and a small amount has overflowed out of the tank.
Nowt to worry about.
 
Don't worry sir, they all do that...

Don't fill it so far up in the warmer weather.
