    Another oil leak story

    Last week I went for a 4 hr trip on the R3. I was washing the bike after and thought I saw traces of an oil leak but I was a bit too quick with the snow foam to investigate properly. I headed out again yesterday and there's definitely oil coming from somewhere. I've read about leaks from the...

    2.5 using oil

    Found out my bike has been leaking oil. It's always "used oil" and I wonder if this could be where it's been going all along- seems likely. It's coming from the gear position sensor and is slow enough that it never drips beneath the bike and may only happen when the bike is running. If so, the...

    Already leaking oil

    Only approx. 1,900 miles and the R3 GT is already leaking oil. It seems to be coming from the seam/gasket along the lower side of the transmission, near and behind the forward controls. Of course, further back the wind from riding has blown it all over including along the side of the starter...

    Oil leak at starter motor

    My son has been investigating an oil leak at the starter motor. We took the bottom bolt out and it was covered in oil. From here a drip was falling on the floor every night. When we took starter motor off, we found the O ring broken and it looked like it had been pinched when the motor was...

    Oil leak

    Does anybody have the same problem as I. It doesn't look like an easy fix. There's a bolt on the bottom of the dipstick tube which access is going to be difficult. I had the gas tank and Plenum off today. I had too much going on to try to fix it. I'll have to order the O-ring and then fix it...

    Oil Leak on 08 R3 Touring

    Hey guys, I recently sprung an oil leak on my 08 Rocket III Touring that has me scratching my head. Was hoping some else might have ran into this before. It doesn't leak at all in short runs 15 mins, no matter how hard i ride it. It seems to only start leaking in longer runs. 30 mins or so. It's...

    HELP!!!!! Oil leaking from bottom pan?

    I am not remotely mechanically savy. My new-to-me 2015 Rocket 3 Touring just started leaking today. I rode it for probably 300 miles Sunday, no leaks. Then today I rode about 35 miles and parked it. When I went back out to the garage there was something underneath it. At the time I thought it...

    Leaking head gasket.

    Good day Rocketmen, I am so overjoyed and astonished with my 22 Triple Black GT. Rode 2k miles to the trail of the dragon 3 weeks ago and it was a religious experience. Totally amazing. Adrenaline for days. Those roads were superb. That being said, a week before I started my trip I took a...
