Got major oil leaks in the head area. seems to be coming mostly from one of the head bolts but looks like the head gasket as well. Bike still runs great after 80,000 miles. I bought a head gasket and will do the install this weekend. Any tricks I should know about before getting too deep? I've done a cam chain replacement already, so I,ve been that far at least. I plan on going down to the head gasket only. No piston removal. I'll post after the surgery and lend any tips I might discover. I'm curious to see what the combustion chamber looks like after all those miles. Ride safe.
