So as you may have seen in other treads my bike is poorly, I'm not completely sure why this happened

my guess is fuel tap needs a repair kit, don't know what other damage its done, hopefully I'll just change

oil & filter and sort out the fuel tap and see how it goes,

anyone got any Idea's what else would have caused this.

I did recently clean out my carbs, but double checked everything, also did an oil change not long ago

Could be a stuck float Tommy that would put fuel in the oil but usually it pisses out of the overflow on the bottom of the carb, other than that, as you say, it's probably the fuel tap that's knackered.
