Bike is a brand new 2012, I bought it in the crate and opened it myself...So there is no way the cap has been switched. And regardless there is a rubber seal in the cap and its not leaking from there anyways...The only thing that has been swapped is the OEM breather tube, I have a Zeta one on there with a one way valve...It seems to either be coming out of the breather valve, or at the base of the nipple...When I am in a wheelie and I look at the cap, it seems to be spewing out of the base around the nipple that the hose is on...It doesn't appear to be leaking out of the one way valve...

So I am looking into a cap/breather valve combo that is known to work well....I would just buy a Zeta blue cap because I have alot of Zeta blue parts on my bike already, but if its the Zeta breather that is actually allowing the fuel to come out...Then I dont want to waste my money as a Zeta cap will come with the same breather I already have...

Tomorrow I will try using the OEM breather tube, but I still want an aftermarket billet cap/breather combo, so if anyone has any suggestions on ones that work Id like to hear em...Thanks
