Title: Oil leak.
Post by Zekeryan56 on 05/26/19 at 12:43:30

New member, new to savages. Bought a bike to bobber it because I like the look of these thumpers everything was going fine. Had it on a jack for a while. When I took it off the jack I and put it on the kickstand I noticed some oil on the ground. It seems to be coming from where the fame extends into the gearbox from the controls mount on the left side. I had noticed when I bought it the gear Shifter was slightly bent there didn't look too be any significant damage. Anyone here have any idea what may be up with this? What it'll involve to fix. The person who sold it to me must have known about this.

Ahhh, good call I'll try that. That would definitely be it because I changed the exhaust. Thanks. This is my second bike so I'm still new at this. Good thing I asked here first.
