Good day, I have a very anoying problem with my 76 kz900, aftr I have riden it for awhile and park it gas leaks out from the breather lines coming from between 1+2 and 3+4.I can shut the gas off right away but it still does it, I have those lines routed down under the bike. Could anyone tell me what to do to stop it?

your overflow must be clogged and ur float needles may not be closing closing and/or possibly also check ur float level height as well, what about ur overflow lines, or do u have vm 29 carbs with no overflow ????

thats the confusion ,I find it hard to believe that ALL the overflows would be clogged, somethin and hooked up right or set right, the floats would have to be off the chart for these symptoms to happen
