Hi All,
Bike stands since June.
Last week i smell Gas in the Garage.
Seems like Carburator(Super G) leaks at the enrichener.
Anyone had this Issue?
How to repair and what parts ( O-ring, Gaskets) are necessary?

same issue was covered a few weeks ago. are you turning the petcock to off? if not, you should be, the gas that is standing in the carb will be eating away at the O-rings. if you are, if I remember right, somebody said that Pingle rebuilds their petcocks, and that is the brand that should be on the Big Dogs. I know you are in Germany, so maybe there is a rebuild kit you can order so you don't have to post the petcock to the state and back for the rebuild. good luck.

Hey Hans, ya might wanna do a carb rebuild. Kit isnt hard to install. Mostly gaskets. You may have a gasket that dried out and shrunk just a little. Just my .02 . She did sit for a while during your recovery. I would bet HDM or WSW will have what you need. Hope all is well with you n momma.

Look its real simple

Leave any dog in the house too long, it's going to piss on your floor. This is true from Poodles to Great Danes.

Stop abusing the poor thing and take it out for a walk once in a while.
Hey Mike, dont forget the poor guy broke his back the last time we got together. Hardtails can be a bitch.

Ok, I had forgotten that.
That's exactly why I don't ride/own a hardtail -- my back couldn't take it -- hell I've been down for about a week at this point just throwing mine out again -- it's a real bitch -- it was 70 and I couldn't ride!

Yesterday tarted Bike and drive around the houses.Its only a little circuit less than a mile.
So I had to make some rounds to get little mileage. Bike is only legalized from April to Oktober.
Maybe my Neighbors think that i am not right in my head.
But the result is NO More Leakin and my back accept ride my Dog unbelted.
Went short time ago into Garage No Gas smells.If leak again can get Super G gasket kit here from a Dealer.
Wanna change to a spring seat but till now i dont found one who is worth to be on my Dog.
Hardtails can be bitch, but they are sweet........
