Since I've owned this bike I notice after parking it in the shop after a ride or starting it for a few minutes I smell a fuel odor,I have no leaks,seems to come from the airbox area but after 20 minutes the smell is gone,is this normal on the M2 |

It is normal for mine. I leave mine out to cool down some before I garage it. If not the wifey complains. |

Do you turn off the fuel petcock every time when you turn off the engine? It's a safety precaution that hopefully ensures that fuel does not spill out of the carb. |
