    The issue of the warranty is interesting...
    If overfilling the tank ruins that canister; could that still be considered a warranty item?
    After all; if you let it dry out well before calling the dealer; could they trace it back to owner error?
    Bob, You might add the leaking fitting on top of the gas tank.

    Bob,

    No, I started on the ride yesterday with about 3/4 of a tank of gas and didn't refill after the ride. I also am fairly careful not to overfill the tank.
