Re: Big oil leak behind generator cover

...and the bike is in gear? Is your clutch slipping? Yes, the bike is en gear. The rotor only turns when I apply force by trying to get the bolt off. I’m a mechanic novice, so I don’t know if my clutch is slipping. I’m having some problems getting it into neutral if the bike isn’t rolling, maybe th...

Re: Big oil leak behind generator cover

Re: Big oil leak behind generator cover

As you found out, if you try to run the bike without the cover in place, that cap will pop out. From your picture, it appears that it is in backwards. The nipple should be sticking out. Th...

Big oil leak behind generator cover

So I was trying to replace my rotor yesterday. When I started my bike, I had forgotten to put in the four bolts that hold the generator cover :oops: The cover felt out and oil was poring out of hole where a little bolt had fallen out. My question is, what is this bolt and how do I secure it properly...
