leak

Hi, This is my first post but I've been reading the forum for some months now (Excellent source of info)sorting out little problems with my RSV but I can't sort this one yet so I'm after a bit of advice. The bike is a 2006 RSVR and after a long ride I have small oil marks on the fuel tank...

Ok just nursed the bike home after realising the clutch resevoir was empty:confused, bled the system to try and find the leak, I'm pretty sure its coming from the slave cylinder so I need to get a new slave cylinder seal. I really want to avoid going through aprillia cause I would like to get...

I'm probably being a numpty here, but when I got to my bike yesterday afternoon I noticed a damp patch under it and what looked and felt like petrol on the end of one of the hoses that sticks out of the fairing. Got home and parked up, went out to the garage later and voila! another damp patch...

Took lad to the zoo at Blackpool this morning..When we got back to the bike, noticed the fairing lowers swimming in oil.. Rode it slowly to build the level up in the sight glass, and it's half way up the pipe, so rode home.. When I took the panels off, it turns out that the oil tank is weeping...

Does anybody know where I can get two rocker cover gaskets from before next Wednesday ?? Both of mine are leaking a reasonable amount, also whats the best way to clean the mess up with ?. Degreaser & Hose pipe ....................

Hi All, I've had my 2004 RSV for about 5 weeks now, on the whole I'm pretty damn delighted with the bike - however, just started to notice oil on the flywheel cover, and particularly round the pickup. I've wiped the oil off, but it re-appears after a ride, not much, but enough to be...

How easy is it to replace the rear cylinder rocker cover gasket?. I think mine has sprung a small leak.....................at least I hope its not anything more serious :dunno

Hi All, Just been out for a run up the western lakes and I noticed water being sprayed from the underside of my 2008 RSV Factory, anyway I stopped and it would appear that my radiator has started to leak just around the top right hand side though can not be definate. The temp gauge was reading...

Hi Guys, it seems like you just get one problem sorted, you have a couple of weeks of fun and then....... I go outside for a ride this afternoon only to find a small drop (about the size of a penny) of oil underneath my 2004 RSV :bawling I had this last year and found it was a weld on one of...

Bike is an 03 RSV with EVo airkit rsv ti can and gabro chip with 5deg ignition advance. I ride it everyday as my short commute In the last few days the bike seems very easy to flood when starting. If its not started on the first few cranks i leave it for a few seconds then try again if it...

I was just breaking in my new barnett clutch plates last night and noticed that my clutch resorvoir was leaking due to A)bad hose connection B) bad seal on the end of the hose/clutch lever. And today my bike stalled on the freeway one of a sudden I tried to start it while going and it just won't...

Stupid me! didn't leave the bike on level and when I went to get my helmet it fell. Anyway I have a fuel leak I located the leak coming from a hose which has a Stopper on it. I put the stopper back that's prolly the quick drain hose. so my question is I see two plastic pipes on the right side...

Every time I fill up my 07 RSV, fuel leaks out of the filler cap on to my jeans as soon as I lean the bike into a corner. Or, if I am going fast enough, it begins to seep out of the cap along the tank. The cap seems to be closed. Thoughts?

hi peeps, Now my second tank is leaking fuel:angry :rant, before i take a tank to be welded up could someone with a early 2000 or older bike possibly post a pic of their front mounting point where the tank bolts to the frame. I'm intersted to see what, if any, blocks or rubber mounting points...

Anyone give me any pointers? I've got home after a weeks holiday to find fuel dripping out of my drain hose. The hose goes direct to my tank as when I blow down it with the filler open I get a head full of petrol. I've tried leaving the filler open as it was full of fuel and I thought it might...

Hello everybody! First time posting on this site. Help & advice needed. My 01 model RSV Mille has been off the road for 4 months following a fuel leak at the base of the fuel pump. It appears that the plastic fuel tank has warped and may need to be replaced. Anyone else experienced this...

So, having noticed the odd drops here and there on the garage floor the morning after the night before, and thinking it may have something more to it than having had the belly pan off to clean the inside.....I decided to investigate. It turns out that the lower mounting bracket which is welded...

Hi all, well, my 1st proper post is for a problem, ho, hum:roll I have had this bike for nearly a week now & discovered a problem. I have just filled the tank & it lis leaking fuel down the left rear part of the frame as it sits on the side stand. Is there a know problem for this? Is there an...

This morning I spotted two stains under the bike of what it seemed to be refrigeration liquid. When I arrived to the office this morning, I look again under the bike and the bottom part of the fairing was wet (it wasn't raining :confused) I will take off the right side part of the fairing to...
