hasnt got a flap... also hasnt got an under tray.. i wouldnt of thought that water would corse a problem, I mean its bike, they get wet.. my others dont do it.. I was assuming there was water getting to the plug..it has rubber cush at the bottom of plug and at top of cap... thinking out loud here.... cud it be selonoid, possibly rectifyer....
