Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I was looking at my bike and noticed a tube under the bike by the swing arm pointing toward the ground...Is this normal or is it suppose to be like that?

anyone know what this could be? I'll take a picture when I get a chance.

That's not a dumb question. Yeah man it's normal. It will leak occasionally too. It's the gas overflow. Perfectly normal and supposed to just hang and occasionally drip.

Thanks man! I'm glad there is this forum as this is my first bike and it's good to know that there are people willing to help!

If you overfill your tank, you will see gas on the ground below this tube.

Give it a squeeze once in awhile mud dabber wasps sometimes seal them up.

same here, these forums are the best thing for (any) bike ownership!
plus on "this site" specifically, there are many helpful folks!

I've been on other forums (over the years) where trolls create problems, luckily I hadn't seen any here and hope we never do.

note: I was always told that there is no dumb question.

the search feature is very helpful, because there will be times, a question has already been answered by another, however that is certainly not always the case....so feel free to ask anything.....glad you are here!
