Okay, several of you may know that my bike turned into a chocolate shake mixer over the winter. I baby my bike, so I'm positive that I didn't blow something at the track, and it's not from lack of upkeep on maintenance (as I'm very regular with oil, lubes, replacement, checking torque, valve check). Unfortunately, in the rebuild there was nothing visibly damaged, no bad gaskets, no missing freeze plugs, etc. I rebuilt the water pump as I was told that they do have a way of going bad.
The bikes been running well (actually smoother) since the reassembly.
The only issue now is that the little hose which ??? I guess relieves pressure from the oil blocked at the oil seal (the one that's pressed in under the mechanical seal) is always weeping. By always, I mean that while I'm riding it's just enough that I smell it burning on my exhaust, and when I park, I've got a couple tiny drips on the floor. It never wept before.
Any ideas? :dontknow:
