I'm gonna check the vent hose and BAS when I get home.


Doesn't have one. That sucker will go with the kickstand fully deployed.

If you're set on draining the tank,see if you can get to the fuel line and disconnect it and use the fuel pump to run the fuel out for you. Personally, I've honestly never drained a gas tank or even used Sta-bil, modern gas just doesn't "go bad" in a couple months IMHO.

Um Marko,forgive me,but you have checked that your "Run" switch is all the way switched to run right? Do you have a fuel pet cock? Does your fuel pump run when you turn on the key? If not then you have either a loose connection at the pump or maybe an electrical gremlin like the tip switch,etc. I'd make sure that the cpu is not loose and stuff like that.

think that would depend on where you get it, they are putting more alcohol in the gas which attracts moisture. I always told people to put seafoam or stabil in their gas tanks if they aren't going through at least a tank of gas a week. two reasons for that, they could be buying cheap or old gas from someplace like Casey's and #2 seafoam is a cleaner too and it doesn't hurt to run it every few tanks.

I was thinking water being the problem here.

I'm not familiar with Buells though
