Good callI used to throw a rag over mine when I took the bike to work, secured with a small bungee or sometimes a travel cover.

Does finding . . . the main jet that I lost yesterday count as doing something to the XS?
The shop never gets cleaned up so quickly as when you have misplaced something small.Well, you found that jet and that's the main thing (sorry)
That is true! And one never ceases to be amazed at how far small springs and clips or even nuts and washers will fly. And how good they are at rolling into unlikely or inaccessible places. Eh, we 'ad such fun playing hide'n'seek on our own in't garage.The shop never gets cleaned up so quickly as when you have misplaced something small.
Sorry to hear/see. I save foil pie plates, frozen dinner, bakery pie plate, etc. Any "throw it away" foil, I have a stack in my garage cabinet. That is not to say we have a lot of prepared foods, only that I do save those foul trays. Good for sautéing oinions and mushrooms on the grill next to steaks.. As an aside, to prevent staining your concrete, lay the cardboard in an overturned plastic garbage can lid. Good luck with the leak.Changed the cardboard underneath. This is after about three hours View attachment 201055
I think the shape of the oil stain is trying to tell you something. Lol.Changed the cardboard underneath. This is after about three hours View attachment 201055
e impress
Yes, that is a pretty bad leak, lol. But, being so big, it should be easy to find. After a couple seasons, I've managed to get the bottom side of the '83 to stay reasonably clean and dry .....
I don't expect these old motors to be 100% leak free but as long as it isn't dripping, I'm happy. I consider oil "sweat" in some spots normal and don't mind having to wipe it down occasionally.
You need to post some pictures or give a better description of the leak / area.Where is my oil leak coming from? My oil filter isnt leaking i know for sure. I cant figure out where its coming from any thoughts?
