Title: oil drip
Post by: rayz1951 on August 21, 2013, 12:14:12 PM

I noticed a small oil drip about the size of an eye drop that came from the rocker box cover.  This was after a long ride. Is there a seal there that may have to be changed?  :confused5: It is at the rear cylinder at the rear of the cylinder.

Had the same leak on the rear rocker box above the exhaust port.  On both bikes, I removed the valve cover and tightened all of the rocker box bolts to cylinder head without having to further disassemble and replace the rocker box gasket to head.  There is a torque for these bolts but a couple of them i just tightened to what i thought that size bolt should be.  Hope it works for you.

(I also snugged the breather cap cover bolts)-again under the valve cover.
