Gas question

I rode the bike to work today, parked in front of the building, a little after 11am I went outside to check on the ride and I could instantly smell gas, as I look down there was gas on the ground from the over flow tube! Is that normal? It was cool when I came in but it is warm now and the bike is in direct sun light.

I filled up the last time I rode which was Wednesday and I haven't rode untill today! I will check today.

since it was in direct sunlight it should have just been vapors coming out the overflow tube unless it got hot enough to boil ?

just guessing???

That's what I was thinking, it wasn't hot enough to boil, just vapors.

I have noticed that on my 06 also. After rides on really hot days, I get a hint of gas smell when I shut her down and get off. Just a few seconds and then it goes away. Only notice it on the hot days.
