Default Fuel leak on 04 grizzly

I bought a grizzly last week and after 20 miles it started dumping fuel out the black hose that comes off the bottom of the carb. It does it sitting in my garage even when it is not running unless I shut the fuel off. I think the fuel level must be to high, Does this sound right ?? I am taking it in under warranty, But I would like to have an idea what is causing it. Thanks in advance.

Bryan

Float may be sticking. Or a bad needle valve-seat.

There seems to be three hoses on the carb. Is it leaking from the Vacuum chamber breather hose located on the left side (shifter side) of the bike? Is it leaking from the Drain hose located on the right side bottom section of carb? Or is it leaking from the fuel line hose that originates from the fuel valve?

Vakero, It was leaking at the little black hose off the bottom of the bowl. The dealer has already fixed it. There was something in the needle and seat and it wasn't shutting off.
