  • bike down left side , oil leaking right side , ideas?

    i crashed on the freeway and bike fell and slide on the left side , after replacing the engine cover and riding it i have oil leaking from the right side of engine .
    seems somewhere close to the oil line , oil comes out enough onto my leg from the side vent hole in fairing
    anyone know if this is common and anyone know what i should do to fix
    thanks

    I don't know, my friend, but it is certainly good hearing from you...Kreylin or Arsenic may chime in and help you.

      Oil cooler, or the line connection point.

        Take it to the car wash, get rid of all the oil, run the engine and see where the oil comes from. Repair accordingly.

            If it's the line, it's just 2 banjo bolts on each line. The oil cooler is almost as easy.

              Wash it down, let it dry, coat the area with some baby powder then run it. You will easily find where your leak is coming from...

                Don't power wash your bike with a hot motor , can cause cracks to pop up .
                Cars exsusht manifolds are very common to crack when hot with a water bath .
                Seems to be a easy repair once you isolated the issue .
