Default PLEASE.... HELP

Ok... so im not the super mechanic or anything and i have a problem. Was riding home yesterday when the bike felt like it was out of gas.. the problem was that i had just gotten gas. Once i stopped, i noticed that the bike was running very rough and i had oodles of trouble launching, meaning it would almost stall every time. Once i got into a praking lot to figure out what the heck was wrong i noticed there was a pile of gas under the bike... So i took all the fiarings off, cleaned out as many lines as i could, then put tank back on and fired it up and still had a large leak. The leak is coming from one of the air line filters bleeder hose.... it is the larger air line that runs all aliong the left frame rail to the front. It was a steady constant stream and i have no idea why there is gas in my airlines.... im assuming it will have something to do with fixing the running of the bike.. Any and all help will be appreciated.....

Thanks

My guess is that the gas is leaking and then dripping down onto the air intake hose. There are fuel lines that run above that ram air intake. My best recomendation at this point is to take the thing apart... I mean remove all the fairings. I would also take the tank off so that you can get a clear view of the fuel line from the tank to pump and then to the carbs. I had a leak in mine and it was on the tank side of the fuel filter. Cheap piece of crap filter [:@] . It is just highly unlikely that the fuel is coming out of the ram air intake.
