Are you sure its leaking from the fuel tank?

It could possibly be coming from your fuel filter. The chinese pocket bikes are renowned for having this problem. You can find good quality and cheap fuel filters to fit your PB at your local lawn mower shop.

Drift it is no hassle just bring it in like I told you a couple of days ago we will look over it free of charge.
And stop with the comments Gazz!!! We have been on the phone with this customer and he has chossen not to bring it in to us we are not ignoring him so dont insinuat it F%*K you guys are the biggest bunch of f$#king arsholes!!!!(not you drift) This was a second hand cateye and the customer was full informed and the bike was in fully working reco'd order when it left the shop and is typical of the type of bike in its need for constant tinkering as are all bikes of this type. Drift once again I ask you to bring it in if you choose not to I will help you in any way I can as I have told you repetedly over the phone.

Gazz if you want to help this guy I say good on you mate power to you but f%$king back off me mate and I mean this seriously!!!
