I returned from a ride today, and after parking my bike and getting something to drink, notices a small, and I mean maybe one drop of oil, leak on my driveway.  It was on the left front, under the shift linkage.  I got down and looked under there, and there seemed to be quite a bit of old oil, plus some new.

I was wondering if this is a common place for leaks on the Savage, and if anyone has an idea of how big a job it would be to fix it.  I know this is not much info, just wondering if anyone else has had to fix a leak in this spot, and what their experience was.

Thanks.

Can you give me a little more info about this?  My bike dribbles a drop or two from that area depending on how clean the concrete is underneath,  but I cannot find a source.  Do I take the starter off? Where does the o ring go?  Can I find this on a diagram somewhere, ron ayers microfich, for example?

Thanks

Thanks, I will add that to my list of many other things to do.  It is not a real consistent leak, more of an annoyance.  But I do like things to be like they are supposed to be.  I do have the clymers, by the way, but the bike is so close to the ground and I am so big it is tough to get under there.  I told my wife today I wish I had a couple of days to just stay home and do nothing (meaning do the things I really want to do).  Not likely to hapen soon, but it is a good thought.

Thanks
Mike
