  • 34 VD oil leak

    So my Rosie has been misbehaving this morning after I let her sit for about a month. Drained old oil, switched batteries, topped off with SAE 50 high zinc, primed carb, started bike and went "Oh S***, I didn't pump oil into the crank case!". I only had ran her for 20 seconds or so before so I cut off the ignition and pumped 4 pumps into the crank case. When I stopped at work she had a pretty good leak by the chain sprocket. It eventually stopped and I might have lost maybe 1/4 a quart of oil. Did I overfill the crankcase? She seemed to run fine and smooth, but the leak was noticeable. Any thoughts?

    Also, anyone know the size/type bolts that secure the tank to the frame? I appear to have lost 2 from vibrations.
