I'm the wrong person to ask...HEY quit looking at my bike!!! Probably just
an O ring, keep an eye on your oil level and have a great trip!

Subject: oil leak


getting ready to leave on a trip and took the ambo out for a short ride to
make sure it's all still worked after sitting a couple of months. when I got
home after the ride I noticed some oil leaking out of the base of one of the
jugs. the head gasket apears to be in tack but a small amount of oil is
visible on the side of the case easily traced back up to the base of the jug
question ? should I
1. ingnore it. it will hold together for the trip and deal with it when I
get home?
2. pull the valve cover and check the tightness of the bolts.
3. cancel the trip the oil is just a warning of major things about to happen
