Fuel tank leaks

[900rracer]

So, I smelled gasoline and here it was seeping from one of the front mounts that are recessed into the gas tank. I took the tank off last night so the house did not stink and put it outside. I am going to my dealer first thing this morning and I am going to ask them to give me a new one off the showroom floor. I just bought it in February. It was an 09 leftover. Anyone else ever see this?

haha yeah preaty much all of us with a ktm.... its a common problem, ktm with replace the tank, because the inserts spin if you tighten the bolts to tight ,then it leaks,,.. check out ktmatvhq.com theres 100s of threads about it and the fixes..

I have a leftover '09. All the inserts in the tank spin. I endup epoxy them in. Its doesn't take much to over tight em.

Mines an 09 leftover and just started doing it too.
Sick0, did you put the epoxy around the outside of the insert or take the insert out an basicly glue it in there?
