On the Gsxr racers they use catch bottles for fuel as well as coolant (pic attached). Why not setup a catch bottle for the 1125, opinions??

Or, is the evap canister the only solution?

There is no reason you couldn't. It would keep the fuel from dripping but w/o a charcoal type can you will still get the vapor smell. you will also need to drain it occasionally unless you run the tube to the bottom of the catch can then it may pull any standing liquid back into the tank when it cools...?
