BarryG Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I tightened the screw on it and clean/lubed the chain but after riding I notice black crap slowly leaking from this plate.....is that normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rockmeupto125 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 The grease/grunge from the chain and road collect on and under the chain guide. That's the "leaking" you are seeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborneXX Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 +1 I almost freaked out when I first got my bird and saw a leak. Then I composed myself and thought impossible Hondas don't leak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickrad Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Dude, that's the reserve oil reservoir! You need to take it off and replace the gasket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickrad Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Rethinking..... You should take it in for service at your local dealer so a professional can take a look at it. The chain can sometimes rub a hole into that filling lid for the oil that you speak of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
