Administrators Eric Hall Posted May 23, 2017 Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 I have my first oil leak! I suspect it is service related as I just got my 18k mile service done. Oil looks to becoming pretty high up on the rear cylinder. Valve gasket? I checked my oil and it's still half up the indicator. Im in Utah now and will attempt to ride it home and keep an eye on the oil level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Eric Hall Posted May 30, 2017 Author Administrators My Rides (3) Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 At the shop with the bike and we suspect a balancer shaft seal went bad. Valve cover gasket is fine, the oil was puking out the air intake. $30 part but $$$ labor. I suspect that the bike sat so long before I bought it ('11 with 3k miles) plus the 18 weeks without a key that it could have gone bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
