Hey guys,
My Gen 1 developed an oil leak out of the blue this week. Yesterday when I started her up in the morning I noticed a burning oil smell and saw a small puddle under the bike, oil was slowly dripping onto the headers. I did not have time to take my car to work so i just rode it down and back and it did drop about 10 drops of oil during the day while parked.
Today I checked to make sure the Oil Filter was not loose, and I still need to get under her and clean all the oil off the motor and take a closer look, but I think it might be coming from where the Sprocket connects to the transmission, is that a place where oil can leak from? I actually have the day off on Thursday to work on some stuff for my car n truck, so I will be adding this to the list. I am just shocked at how sudden it was and the amount of oil. My other Gen 1 never leaked, and I have owned this bike for nearly 2 years now.
I will post up more info when I have time to start digging into it and take some pictures.
