Oil drips from gear change lever?

Adamastor · 08-22-2009, 06:43 PM

Hi there, I have a GN250 (same engine of the GZ) and although I am very pleased with it, she's has been dropping oil from near the gears lever.

Could it be that I need to replace an O-ring? Can it easily be done? If it's not coming from that lever, where could it come from?
Sorry about my lousy english, and thanks in advance for any ideas/help/tips.

Regards,

Sergio

Keep tracing the oil leak. My guess is that it's coming from somewhere else, like the oil drain bolt, and you are only seeing it on the shifter. Lay on your stomach and have a look under there.

Just a thought. Maybe chain lube from the front sprocket being flung off and dripping.
