Maybe the baby, if dry, needs some powder chalk at is butt to identify where the problem is coming from....

Known suspect for an oil leak is the clutch pushrod seal.. Unlike the VF750, 1000 and 1100, this seal originaly can only be replaced by pulling the engine.

Other option is to dremel the outer ridge of the engine case off and then pull the seal. Installing the seal back with an O ring will do. On mine I made an extra lip on the sprocket cover that prevents that same seal from running out of the engine case.

I have that seal in stock..

Other known leaks if it isn't oil based. Is the waterpump..

Check the battery fluid levels.. If the battery gets a bit low on level, it might get up in that range.. Not to worry, not as long it gets in the 14.5+ range..

Nice pics...

Wait a minute... Foreign member... Sunny day... Dyke route.. V4's... And I don't have an invitation.....

We have to talk Leon..

Nice work Dutchy.. Allthough I have a different mindset... All I need is an oil light and a RPM dial (and a really big RPM dial if possible).

But I like the style.. Was afraid it wouldn't fit the space, Think there is marginal any room left between the cowl and the back of the dials, but I am glad it worked out..

How are the steering stem bearings holding out.. Still no play, or did you have to readjust them ??

Without enlighting our "radioactive" spirits.. Did the headstock surgery improve the steering problem ?
