 2000 rc51 honda motorcycle. i started it up 1/2007 and it smoked real bad so i shut it off. gas tank leak at the rear mount where it (the mount) is welded to the tank which could easly cause a fire. after hearing this has happened to a lot of 2000 rc51s and honda has replaced these tanks i took mine to a dealer for inspection. they determind it was a defect yet honda will not replace it because of age. the motorcycle has only 7000 miles. it has not yet been replaced. tank is at dealer

 Dt: contact stated a fuel smell was coming from the motorcycle. he took off the fuel tank and fuel was leaking from the weld in the tank. it was a slow leak, but you could smell the fumes. he contacted the dealer, they urged him to bring vehicle for service. *ak
