Cracked overflow tube
A while back I'd questioned why my overflow tube was pissin' fuel everytime I filled the tank? Come to find out I have a cracked overflow tube in the tank. When researching I learned there was a recall on '06 ZX12's. But couldn't find any info on the 14's. Long story short, there is indeed a a problem with the 14's as well. The dealer doing the replacement said many of the Kaw's had the same issue. (Cruisers included.) Just a heads up if any of you have this problem in the future.
On a positive note, the tank's on its way and I've got a new set of Pirelli Diablos going on. Gonna' be a great summer.

same problem add the zx12r. the recall was for adding a weight to the tube to stop the vibration from cracking it. I'm glad there are changing out your tank because the weight never worked on mine.
