made it a week... and now a new leak. Called this one, since everything on the back side of the Y adapter had been replaced I kind of figured something on the front side would start. This one looks like it might be a little worse. As I don't yet know where it's coming from and it might be the primary gasket.... luckily I have one handy...
but...if we can all take just a moment to see how clean that kickstand is after cutting it in half, removing 1.5-2" and welding it back together then powdercoating... lol
Damn man you are not having luck when it comes to keeping oil in your bike. My issue is having all lights working at once. I fix one and another goes lol. Clean all of that up down there and set the bike to idle in upright position. Should be a quick discovery.

cup half full...at least I'm getting familiar with every hose/connection/bolt. lol
damnit.
I wiped it off last night with a towel, came out this morning, didn't see any more down there, going to wash it off tonight and see what happens. Need to get some upright stands so I can lift the rear wheel and keep it upright while dicking around with it
Yea, I know my turn signal wiring in and out now. Ever need to rewire turn signals let me know I'm your guy for it lmao. Stands make life so much easier, I'm just waiting to get a more permanent garage set up before I invest in the one I want.

oh, I actually do need help with turns. lol. but I'm waiting to get the leaks fixed long enough to actually work on them
removed my rear brake light, went aftermarket..finally got around to wiring up the rear turns... then my fronts wouldn't work and only one on the back would...then it stopped...then I was riding down the highway and out of nowhere my hazards came on on the front (didn't even realize I had hazards)...then my left front turn signal came on randomly...then on the same ride home, my front right turn signal lens (the orange cover) fell off a few blocks away from home. At least that one made me laugh some...
The bike is your calm up until you start really diving into electrical and by the sounds of it you're going to need a case lmao. I've pulled apart baskets to check and rewire, removed parts to get to the wiring, fixed PO's cluster f*ck of wiring skills on the harness, and rewired the ignition one before having the shop throw one on since they had it all torn down lol

For now, I'll just keep removing stuff. rear turns not working? throw away...front turn fell apart... you're lucky front turn, I have a spare orange lens...next time, throw away... I fear the day the headlight starts ****ing with me. lol kind of need that one
