Consumer Description
THIS IS A CONSTANT ISSUE. SMELL OF RAW FUEL WHEN VEHICLE HOT. VERY NOTICABLE EVEN OUTDOORS. STOPPED WITH A GROUP OF FRIENDS RIDING (THE REST ON 2 WHEELED MOTORCYCLES), AND SOMEONE ASKED US TO CHECK OUR BIKES FOR FUEL LEAKS BECAUSE THEY SMELLED 'RAW GAS'. IT WAS MY SPYDER. DOES THIS ON ANY WARM DAY AFTER A LONGISH RUN (MY WORK COMMUTE IS 60 MILES EACH WAY, QUITE LONG ENOUGH TO TRIGGER THE SMELL).
