    its an unusual one, but worth checking.

    in hindsight the tell tale fuel stains on the cast frame section should have alerted me sooner to this...

    but i had only recently aquired the bike and i had thought these were just from normal use (the bike had about 50K miles on it when i got it)

    hind sight is always 20/20...:rolleyes:
