Every other time I've heard this mentioned, and it has been a few times, it was the gasket/seal/washer/o-ring missing where the cable seats to the engine.  If it's the same one you say was just replaced, I'd wonder if it's done correctly.

I've got the RH side cover off my engine so I will look at how is is retained/sealed tell all'u'all later.

anyone have a picture of what the rubber oring should look like? i think mine is missing as well.

Wish someone with a new bike can make a description and/or picture of the RING.

It has to seal of the rotating inner cable and the curled nut.  

Maybe it can be made outof 1/8 thick rubber sheet and 2 hollow punches of the correct diameter.

I use an "O" ring that fits the inside of the nut and have NO leaks.

Insert an "O" ring inside the coupling housing screw. Once you insert the speedo cable into the housing properly spread some silcon around the speedo cable were it inserts into the male threated couping inside the cheap housing screw cap which will also hold the "O" ring in place. Threat it down, be careful when using channel locks when tighten threated housing cap. The "O" ring which you can purchase at any hardware store along with the silicon will stop the leak. 8) Just wanted to say howdy to every one. New to site and enjoying it. I own a 2000 doing a complete overhaul and customizing.

FYI, The pillow seat for those looking for an inexpensive way to make the seat more comfortable and sit a little lower use memory foam. An electic turkey knife is the easiest way to form the foam. My butt conforms directly to the seat and once I step off the bike the seat springs right back to its original size and look. I have about 2" all the way around but plan on taking it down to 1/2" thick, buying some leather material to shape the seat. I plan on throwing the cheap plastic seat frame away and replacing it with a piece of 1/16" tin plate. You can shape the tin plate any way you want.

My first contribution to the site. Hope it spurs you on to thinking up even better less inexpensive (not cheap) solutions. Later 8)

Thanks reelthing, now we know what we are looking for.

Down so far as I can tell - i'm like you on the'95 I've had it apart countless times - '02 not much and it is down on it - makes sense otherwise it would fill up like a cup
