Subject: Another tyre question
Hi again.
The consensus on the list seems to be Metz enduro 4 so I've just ordered
a set.
The smell of fuel, my dealer reckons this is caused by the filler cap
which was modified on later models, and can not be retro fitted. He
reckons the vent is not one way causing petrol fumes to escape. This
does not sound right to me, if it was the filler cap you would not just
get the smell when the engine is running, you would get it any time the
atmospheric pressure changed causing air to go in or out of the tank.
Any thoughts on this ? is it possible that the fuel cap is my problem or
is something else wrong?
