Mine is '02, under seat dry break started leaking.. been smelling gas lately. Not sure if it is cracked or a seal is bad.. it's been a beeatch to connect lately.

Mine was operator error. One of my fuel lines behind the left side cover didn't get tightened on enough, and would spray.
I feel pretty lucky after seeing recent posts that I didn't catch fire, because I didn't notice mine right away. It wasn't until I was done riding and saw fuel dripping down the side of the bike. God must have been watching over me there.

02 dry break left side cracked at seam, replaced and no problems with that. Currently working on mounting plate leak under tank and having fun with it. NOT!!!!!!

The rear drybreak leaks sometimes on mine if it's not perfectly seated.

02 w/12k miles leaks at the underside rear bracket and at the seams around the edge in multiple locations both front and rear. Fixed it with KREEM tank liner - no welding.

Bump . . .

It seems mine has developed a leak around the fuel filter. Its a slow leak, maybe a drip per minute. I noticed the puddle in the garage this morning after having the tank off yesterday. I took the tank off and took the filter off and then put it back on tight. It didn't look bad, but I think that's where its leaking from. Just enough to ruin todays ride while I figure out what I'm going to do about it...
