Any ideas?

I spotted this while I was having a clean up,, the other side around the pot is clean and it's still under warranty so a trip to my dealer is on the cards,, anyone had anything similar ? The yellow staining won't come of? Thanks.

My old 1150 went yellow when petrol leaked over a period of time.

Ok thanks, I thought as much and hopefully they will remove the yellow stain when they sort the leak.

has a dog lifted its leg and peed on your bike?

Wouldn't pee wash of?

considering there's a vacuum in that intake , strange to see fuel leaking out and staining the engine there.

I couldn't live with that.

You should consider rejecting the bike

Its probably fuel or some VOC of some sort in the flex diffusing into the laquer, if you disconnect the TB flex joint I bet the inside is much worse.
Heat will make the effect worse.

New engine barrel at the least

The stain will never come off, ever

We've seen it all before with 1100's & 1150's

Fuel hose joints though, not TB's

I will try for a new barrel ,, I suspect they'll tell me they will change for new but take some sandpaper to the original. Thanks for your advice.

I was kidding......

How do you keep between the fins so clean?

The whole engine was wrapped in clear vinyl but the wrap was removed for photographic purposes, ie to impress!

You can try for a new barrel if you like but the part with the stain on it is the head :-/
