Hey All - Newbie question but I figured Id tap the vast resources here vs spend hours trying to locate this.
I did my 5k mile oil change, and after doing so, the bike has been leaving an oil spot on the garage floor. In the picture, Im pointing to wear the oil comes from, in then slides down this tube and deposits on to the floor.
What do I need to do to remedy this? Im assuming/hoping this is just a small gasket and a 15 minute fix. Thanks all - T
There's an o-ring on the clutch cable end where it screws into the side case.
Maybe not 15 minutes, but easy.
Loosen clutch cable fully.
Remove derby cover, remove cable from arm, replace o-ring, adjust clutch "button it up". A service manual will help greatly in this repair.
FWIW might as well change the trans fluid at this time.
