Dammit, motor died on a side street and it dumped its gas all over the street. I'm hoping it's just a cut fuel line, but part of me wonders if it's related to that time I forgot to check the oil and found that I'd done a trackday with it a quart low. Hope my motor isn't kaput.

Autopsy tonight, argh.

we. can. rebuild. it!

I can't imagine the motor being gone. Sounds like a burst fuel line to me! Good luck Sean.

I agree.

Pissing gas wouldn't lead me to assume a blown motor.

The plastic clip that secures the fuel line to the fuel pump is finnicky. Have to pulled or lifted the tank recently?

That was my thought too...yes, yes I have. And I haven't ridden it since then.

Well that was easy. The fuel hose just popped off the fitting.

Crisis averted.

With the luck I've been having this year, I just assumed the bike was totaled, and probably my car and two rooms of my house as well.

Glad it was nothing major.

Always good when it's something easy.

Glad it wasn't anything more serious, man. I would've hated to see that bike go. I love that thing, even if the rear shock was so stiff it kept trying to kick my ass off. :lol:
