How to make carbs leak less gas on wheelies?

[onefastazzbanshee]

How can I make these carbs leak less gas they leak out of the hoses on sides of carbs onto engine and out the ones that go to bottom of bike, I adjusted floats because it was leaking even while it was off with gas on. Now that’s fixed only thing is when I do wheelies it still leaks a lot, I know this can be normal, just wondering if there’s a way to make it leak less? Bike is an 05 with t5’s, vforce4 reeds, and k&n pods, stock carbs.

Adjust floats more but u run risk of running lean. Run hoses all the way to the very back of swing arm so they over flow out that back and not on bike.

Buy 1/8" hose off eBay and run them down past the back of the motor.

Was definitely thinking of doing this only thing is theres 2 on each carb… and adjusting floats to leak less would be good if possible right now they’re adjusted to 21mm from base of carb to float, I would have to adjust them to 22-23mm to leak less is this correct?

I wouldn’t.

Just Run longer hoses vent and overflow hoses.

Sounds good looks like I’m going to have to run the hoses, that way everything stays clean and drips down to the bottom instead of on the engine.
