 Motorcycle has a fuel tank leak at the mounting tabs of the tank. gasoline pours out from around the weld area of the front mounts. it was pouring gasoline all over the motor. some of the roads and freeways i travel are bumpy. occasionally, i may have hit potholes that might have put stress on the mounts. upper fairing stay also broke, very common failure according to other riders ( http://faq.ninja250.org/wiki/my_upper_fairing_stay_is_broken ), at lower mount and could have put stress on the gas tank. i have been riding the motorcycle for the past months with another fuel tank from my other motorcycle. i currently have the leaking tank in my backyard.
