    Any one else have their tank crack and leak fuel? Mine started leaking after my last
    ride. Didn't notice until the next day when I could smell it in the garage, looked over
    at the bike and saw a puddle forming under it as the stand tool tray overflowed. Nice.

    I quick got the tank off the bike and sure enough, there are several cracks underneath
    the tank leaking gas. The cracks are in the frame clearance radius molded into the tank
    on the underside. Looks like it was coming into some contact with the frame tube, but you
    wouldn't think it would break the tank. (It didn't wear through, it cracked.)

    $245 bucks for an IMS........ouch!
