OK so my bike ('04 YFZ450) has been sitting in my garage for about 3 weeks since I changed the oil last time I rode. When I changed the oil I turned off the gas. Today when I tried to start my bike it wouldnt start. While doing this I noticed gas was running from the bottom of the carb at a steady flow. Obviously when I turn the gas off it stops but as soon as I flip the knob, gas resumes pouring out. Anybody got any idea on what's going on??? Thanks in advance!

Check the float drain screw see if it's loose. Also check the gaskets.

I checked the float screw and it was fine. I did not check the gaskets however. Thanks for the info.
