Hey there,
Wondering what you all use for the circular oil filter cover gasket? Makeshift gasket material? First oil change and it took a decent amount of torque with rods in both cover holes to remove, being careful not to go deep as to engage the threads. Gasket couldn’t handle it.
Also, the oil filter screen listed on MikeXS doesn’t list the 83 as being compatible. Anyone else with this bike know where to get a reliable filter? Will be cleaning this one and reusing
Thanks,
Tommy
