My KZ550 did something recently that I have not read a thread about yet. If I stand on the right side to check the oil in the site window. I grab the grip to tilt the bike towards me to level out the oil in the window, maybe I tilt it a little farther right than center. When I do this, about an ounce or two of gas spills out of the drain tube coming from one of the float bowls. I have checked all the drain screws, they seem to be tight. It only does this after it has been setting awhile. Does any one know what the deal is with that?
