Flooding When Hot 5 Years, 3 Months ago  
I am new to this board, and have really appreciated the information I have gotten from the board to keep my 06 R* at its best.

I have an 06 RoadStar Silverado with lots of chorme goodies. The only performance changes I have made so far are Cobra Speedster Slash Cut pipes. The Air Filter is stock, the AIS is in place. Recently when I have gotten the bike up to temperature, and I live in a hot climate at sea level, when I turn the key on the fuel pump runs continuously and gasoline runs down the side of the engine case and the engine floods. It starts only by opening the throttle full open and cranking away. I assume the floats are sticking open for some reason and will no doubt have to fix them some how. Please advise on what you think may be happening and how to address this. It is a mess and there is nothing like lots of gas around hot exhaust to get your attention.

As all motorcycles are a continuous work in progress, I look forward to working together on this one and to helping out when ever I can.
