Gas issues maybe
When I turn my 12 RT LTD off I don't turn the engine off with the key, I use the cutoff switch on the right grip then turn the key to off. I noticed last night I smelled gas after turning off. This morning i noticed I was down two bars more than when I turned it off last night.
Should the gas continue to flow after everything is off?
Is there a recall on this?

When you re-start your engine and ride a bit--the bars come back like magic. Pressure in the tank? Happens to me all the time.
EDIT: Usually only one bar though.

I wish that was the case as always as you said. Today it stayed down 2 bars. I am taking tupperware off this weekend and making sure there isn't a leak. Fuel smell was bad.

Yes, agree. Look for a leak if you smell gas and it seems to be disappearing from the tank.
