·I have done a search on the board and I see that this has benn covered, however I didn't see any solutions.
I have a 96 900. I changed the oil a few weeks ago and now I have started to see oil leaking around my oil filter. I noticed it this morning when warming up the bike there were a few drops on the ground and as the bike warmed up a few more drops fell. Needless to say I took the car to work.
The seal seems tight but I am wondering if I did not put enough oil on the rubber gasket on the filter. Would this cause the oil to drip.
This is the first time I have seen it drip and I changed the oil about 300 miles ago so it seems that the seal was holding, but the temp in the Bay area is changing and I am woundering if this would play into the problem.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob
