Could the front motor mount caused this? I bought a glide pro front mount because I thought the vibration had increased.But when I changed the oil it looked fine no breaks I could see.
No excessive noise in the primary.

That is sealer the crack is at the reverse side of that arrow.
And yes the front mount is bad....completely my fault. She told me but I failed to listen!
So new mount going on Friday....
But if that housing does not leak....maybe ride till I have to open up the primary.
