Hi all,
I had my head gasket changed last year, and it seems?? to be leaking in exactly the same place again.
Can someone help me identify or confirm as I can´t see how it can be leaking in the same place after just a short time.
It is a VERY small leak (not even dripping) but still oil is managing to escape. It´s coming from the left side as you look at the big bolt which holds the frame and also where there is the big rubber coolant hose. A tiny bit of oil gets on the fairing after a ride and also a bit onto the rubber hose. I can put my finger in there and feel the wetness (no pun).
Would this be the gasket again? Is there a cheap easy way to fix this?
Many thanks, please advise.
P.S I change the oil 1 month ago and put in exactly 3.2 litres, just as the manual specifies with a filter change. But when I check the oil as per the manual, I can see that the level is almost to the top of the sight glass. Could this be a reason to cause a small leak like I have described?
