Bad grits! That tank drop is a certified PITA. 
Looks like I'll have to drop my tank sometime, I'm getting a gasoline smell on left-hand turns only when over 3/4 tank, no sign of leakage externally...I'm thinking it's the 13mm (or larger?) filler vent hose leaking on the top right of the tank, or (hopefully not) the vent bung on the tank. When I drop it, I'm considering taking it in to a local fuel tank place to get it derusted and sealed up.
