Please don’t say that guy was filling the bike up while sat on it. :shock:
I once saw a chap completely soak himself with a petrol blowback while filling a CBR600. It’s a scary sight.
Luckily he didn’t catch fire.

I keep on telling my mates off for doing that to get the tank brimmed. I know a chap who DID CATCH FIRE because the fumes that escape end up in your clothes and helmet. If the vapours ignite its curtains ( or scarred for life like my mate) :shock:

Every handbook I’ve read (I do read them once) shows a gap to leave at the filler.
You’ll gain another 100m adding the extra.....with a GS sized bike that might be better than pushing the last bit to the petrol station. They are always uphill.

Just looked again, both near bikes are being filled that way :shock:

Those guys fuelling their motorcycles whilst sitting on them were from Germany, the chap on the left of that photo was wearing a hi-viz jacket which said 'Tour Guide' on the rear. There were about 6/7 of them in a group.
