I have a '99 Drifter that I love.  Although I live in PA and bought it from a guy in Maine, I've found that it is a California-spec bike (purchased in Arizona when new).  My only problem with it (aside from not enough time to ride) is that the filler cap on the gas tank leaks when the tank is full or near full.  I'm wondering if there is a problem with the emission controls on this bike, whether because it is California-spec or not, that is causing this.  I have two other Vulcan 1500s (2003 Nomad, 2008 Classic), both fuel-injected like my Drifter, that do not have this problem.  By the way, the Drifter has about 16000 miles on it.  To my knowledge, there has never been any damage to it, and the only modification I've made (so far) is to put Vance & Hines straight shots on it.

Any advice appreciated.
