you couldn't have just wiped it off and re-tightened it yourself?

Probably pushed fluid out past the gasket due to all the gas bubbles forming in the fluid.  Forgot the Gas-X.

Like deja vu all over again.

The hydraulic clutch reservoir was replaced on my 2010 last year.  Paint was flaking off. Was covered under warranty, it was seeping and was torqued to spec.  Now am adding Tums per the owner's manual addendum at each gas stop when I take a leak, so that it does not.

My brakes don't have gas, my clutch does.  Well, actually, it does not.  Unless it does.  Well, probably it does not.  Have not had it on a Belchometer lately so not sure.  :nixweiss:

Stuff SE Tums up the bikes tailpipe?  You mean the Screamin Eagle Anti-Heat pills made of Genuine Harley Davidson encapsulated unobtanium?  Or Version 2 made with Icy Hot?
