Last ride fuel light came on 5 miles from home.
No big deal, rode it home n haven't rode it for 2 days.
Figure I'll fill it up today.
11 miles to the gas station,reset the trip1 display (138 miles),Fill it to the top,(Not overfilled but to the top).
As I put the gas cap back in I realize its puking gas out the overflow vent,No big deal little too much gas,Then it KEEPS puking.
WAAAAY too much for just a little overfill.
Go to start it up,Turn the key lights come on, flip the switch fuel pump whines,Hit the starter.....NOTHING.
No clik no chirp nothing.
Call the wife to bring the truck n ramps.
STILL puking gas on the kickstand waiting for her.
Load the bike n drive home n it was STILL puking from the overflow.


WTFF IS GOING ON WITH THIS CRAP?!

I swear if I didn't still owe on it I'd sell it today just so I don't have to worry about wtf is next.

Pretty obvious. You bike is clearly suffering through an episode of demon possession. It will likely get worse before it gets better. Seek exorcism forthwith. Your lives are in danger.

I think he's got a miracle there. Imagine, a bike that creates gasoline out of a not-so-full gas tank! : )

Put a bucket under the overflow tube, man, and sell the gas! Get back at that Middle-East Cartel that keeps raising the price of crude. We'll show ya!

You guys are evil for teasing him. Evil in a funny way though. Maybe you bought some of that new "low emissions" fuel at your last stop and instead of going from the tank to the engine, its taking the engine bypass route? Keeps the air from being poluted by those horrible hydrocarbons!

Wow this thread is 2 years old and it took me 4 posts into it to realise I started it.
If I remember right this was the begining of my cascading electrical failure.
