Thanks Swampy. No Ez no fuel leak. I just been riding from Lodi to Fremont every day and it seems to have fixed itself. I actually think it was something clogging the petcock. I hit a bump while splitting lanes on the 580. It died I switched the petcock to reserve. It started again. Witch by the way is fun while lane splitting and it started again. I switched it back to run and it hasnt done it since. Back to 100-108 on a tank.

That 100-108 is when you switch to reserve? When you switch to reserve how much gas are you putting in?
I'm doing about 90m right now, and putting in about 1.85g but then my bike isn't even broken in yet, just over 300 miles.
