After retorqueing all 8 big nuts to 30, the RHS back corner of the cylinder base is still sweating when driving. Doesn't leak when hot and idling. It's not really a big issue, but it's annoys me. An engine should not leak!
Have anyone experienced that a thicker oil have been a solution to similar problem? I'm thinking about changing from the motorcycle 15w/40 i'm using now to a 20w/50.
And would it be okej with a standard mineral 20w/50 oil, sold for cars and/or older worn engines? Where i nomrally buy the oil, they don't have it sepcifically for motorcycles.
Or what about just SAE 50 for older motorcycles, since I only use it during late spring and summer (15-30 degrees celsius)?
Thanks
