Re[2]: Major fuel leak!

["Ian Pollen" <ian.pollen@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Todd,

I have emailed Gore but many thanks for the info. The right leg of my pants
and right boot caught most of the petrol. I have just put the bike away in
the garage and noticed a few pieces of insulating tape coming loose. I
suppose the petrol has washed away the adhesive on the tape.

Going to give the bike a good clean tomorrow and replace any tape.

Regards, Ian
