MOCO has a new gasket that is supposed to fix the leak. Part No. is 16801-07B. Didn't work for me is all I can say. Just got back from a 4 day trip and I leaked about 1/2 quart of oil along the way. IMO, don't waste your time on the new "fix" for the problem that they say is really not a problem. I met 2 other riders with '07 SERK's on my journey this weekend and they have oil leaks also. Still love the bike and really love the extended warranty.

I had my 110 worked on over the winter. New head gaskets, new base gaskets on both jugs.

Guess what - I picked it up Saturday, rode it TEN miles and it is leaking worse than before on the rear jug. The dealer said the base gasket may be pinched. Not a good start to another season!

Follow-up: Leak was NOT base gasket again - it was the bolt in between the cylinders that holds the cases together.  They applied sealant and re-torqued. So far so good after 200 miles.
