Re: Leaking Oil

I'm going to try it myself. I have plenty of experience with engines (cars, trucks and bikes), just not on this bike. The manual simply states "Remove the clutch cover." :roll: It looks like I will have to remove the brackets holding the rear brake cable to get to it. I was mostly concerned that the cover was supporting internal components that needed to be properly secured while taking it off. That doesn't appear to be the case. Now I have to order a gasket and wait.

I may try to temporarily seal it with RTV. I know you don't think that's a good way to go, but if I can drive it for the week or 2 that a gasket will take to come in, it will save me a lot of gas money. If it doesn't work, then I wasted some time and a quart and a half of oil.
