I suppose this is an introduction as well as a HELP NEEDED thread
I just got my first bike, 2004 Kat 600, been riding a month or so. Anyways, took it on long (well long for me) parkway ride yesterday and today , no problems there, but as i'm turning around in my dead end street right in front of my house, I drop it on the left side.
Almost immediately it starts to leak oil out of here:
Left side is starter cover correct?
Inside of cover:
Weeeell, even before all the oil was out (hadnt noticed right away), the bike wouldnt even turn on again. No response from it whatsoever. Lights and electronics work, but no ignition. Could that be a 'safety precaution' for no oil? Someone mentioned a tipover sensor, if that may be it how do I reset it?
In addition, clutch lever feels different than before, and it feels like I can shift gears without even pulling the clutch lever in (but then wont shift sometimes even if lever is pulled).
Any information/suggestions/place to buy parts would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
