Not much information on the problem or what you have tryed to do to fix it, but my first guess would be a pitted petcock valve. If the gas ON/OFF valve gets pitted then the gas simply will not shut off fully.

Check the fuel, if using butnae on cold nights it will struggle to get to full power. Always run on propane on cold nights. If that does not fix it you may have a leak, see leakage testing.
If your bike is carburetor equipped, I'd suspect that you have a jet in the carburetor that is stopped up or the accelerator pump on your carb is not working correctly.
To check the accelerator pump, remove the air cleaner cover and the air cleaner element. Wtth the bike NOT running. Look into the carburetor and crank the throttle wide open. You should see a stream of gasoline come out of the small brass piece and squirt into the carb in a continous stream from time you start opening the throttle until you get wide open. If you do not see this, you need to remove the float bowl and clean it out and replace the diaphragm in the accelerator pump on the float bowl.
hopefully thats the rite diagnoses-try to secure a repair manual-gettin at the carbs on ur bike can be a project for the novice-careful with jets u can hurt engine if lean/rich is off
You have float and/or needle and seat problems. Remove the hoses from the air box to each carburetor. Set bike on center stand or block up to get it level--turn on fuel tap and watch for leakage from each carburetor. Turn the fuel tap off. Pop the float bowl off of any that leaked, remove the float and pin--catch the float needle. You probably have debris in the seat area which causes faulty float action. Turn on the fuel tap again and catch the discharge in a clean small jar. Look for rust or other particles in the fuel. If all carburetors are affected, look at the fuel strainer screen just above the fuel tap bowl--no holes and seated properly. You may need to flush the tank if the interior is rusted or full of dirty fuel.
Is your bike water cooled? It could be anti-freeze. It it were fuel it will not puddle, it will evaperate too quick. Anti-freeze will puddle, and has variuos colors. Also taste it, if it has a sweet taste it is anti-freeze. Just bearly dip you finger in the fluid and just touch the tip of the tounge.
If it were oil it would be dark. Hope this helps you.
there is no way for fuel to get passed the rings right? So if you filled the head with fuel, it would just work its way down the exhaust pipe and out the back, just like its doing. The only way of getting fuel into the sump is; if you have seriously bad rings (it would be burning oil) OR if its getting through the breather system. I don't even think if the injectors were on full-time, it still wouldn't get into the sump... very strange.
Are you sure its not coolant? A serious coolant leak can be completely unnoticeable from the outside, but catastrophic to the inside.
