My '59 Greeves Scottish is running fine now after much ado, but fuel still slops all over the tank (steel one) and my trousers when riding offroad. It has a new filler cap but it still leaks. Is this a common ailment and is their an effective solution ?.
Cheers
Paul

No other comments so mine will not be out of place.
Whats the rubber or cork seal like?
being a 40 year old bike it could have simply turned to dust.
A petrol leak like that is serious.
Modern petrol is really bad for your skin and the fire hazard is extreme.
