Thanks for the replys. I have some time today and will take a stab at trying to stop the leak. It is the 6mm stud. I think I wil try the Three Bond, silicone degrades rapidly when exposed to petroleum products. I am considering removing my engine today and cleaning the frame and everything else, I just don't know how heavy the engine is or what it will take to lift it out of the frame. I hate doing this because if a nice day comes up I'd be wanting to ride! The bike is very dirty from RIDING, It 's not a showpiece. Oh, and for those who'd like to know, I do occasionally twist the throttle
. But generally, I am pretty tame.
Another delima is, the brakes really suck, but I'd like to keep the bike as original as possible. Any good ways to improve what is there without deviating much from stock? Sometimes it really makes your B*TT pucker.
