Title: Re: Blinged my bike but having a problem Post by: brimo on March 31, 2009, 11:43:20 PM oil leak has stopped now, took a bit of time, however, now the bottom end seems to have developed a bit of noise. ???

Title: Re: Blinged my bike but having a problem Post by: Spider on April 01, 2009, 01:00:52 AM seriously Brimo, what have you done? taken off the cover and replaced it with a vented one?
how many bolts did you undo when you were doing this operation (the correct answer should be 4)....did you do anything with the springs or another part of the clutch mechanism? you can't continue past 12 o'clock if this is April's fool!
