Hi,
I just noticed after a short trip that my bike (kdx220R) Squirts gas out the overflow line when its on its stand and not running. Its not a steady stream just lill squirts.

that's fairly common. The things to check are that your float level is set properly, and the float valve is working properly. Also, make sure your stand isn't bent too much making the bike lean over more than it should.

I can not say this enough;

Turn the petcock "OFF" when the engine is not running!
