Hi Steve. I'm a new owner of a '98 (first bike) and I seem to be suffering from an oil leak also. By the "infamous" leak are you referring to one that originates from the bolt directly under the exhaust pipe in the front of the engine? This seems to be the source of my problem. I've seen numerous mentions of the leak within the forum, but I'm browsing with about the computer power of a calculater here, and I'm only able to load posts up to about a year back. If this is what you just fixed, could you give me a quick walk through of the process, and let me know of any parts I'll need to order? I'm not very familiar my bike yet, and I'd rather go in prepared, and do it right, than bluff it, and have to redo it. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
