softail inspection cover leak
I have a 2003 Softail standard which is leaking from the primary inspection cover. \\; It appears to be coming from behind the torx bolts. \\; I have replaced the gasket twice with the concave side facing inward. \\; It was unsuccessful. \\; I even tried rtv silicone around the bolt heads. \\; No luck still. \\; I bought a new metal cover also. \\; Nothing! \\; This is getting old, fast!

RE: softail inspection cover leak
just curios if you actually torqued these bolts to specs? after 40+ fluid changes(I have never torqued those bolts, but torque \\;EVERYTHING else from cases up) I just had one that leaked and tried 2 gaskets to no avail. put another gasket in and torqued per specs and now no leak.
