Did anyone talk to their dealer about it, or did anyone find the real reason?

i found the reason there is one rubber fuel line on each side of the intake looking at it from the front...both of mine were leaking..i tightend the clamps on the one on the left and it stopped...the one on the right is actually under the intake therefore i couldnt tighten it but i could see it is leaking. freakin' sucks..gotta remove intake just to tighten 2 clamps
