I know it's not honda related but I just bopught a ninja 250 that has been sitting for 2 years. I traied to crank it up and gas started to pour out from the carb clear hose. So it tore the bike town cleaned out the carb jets gas tank etc(that gas was really nasty) I put new gas in and it doies the same thing. what could be wrong with the bike ???? thanks for all the help !!!

Could be a couple things i think.

I guess the obvious answer would be that the float is sticking? take the bowl off and check that out... spray some carb leaner in there, and check it out see if you can see a problem.

yeah if its been sittin for 2 years it wouldnt be a bad idea to buy a carb rebuild kit with a new float needle and seat etc

I took out the float, the jets and everything. I cleaned everything up with carb cleaner and it still overflows... do you guys know a place where I could order all of my **** for a decent price ????

I need

a batterie
2spark plugs
possibly a carb rebuild kit
