1098 Inspection Cover Leak?

  1. I've got a very slow oil leak / seepage from the inspection cover (part 19 in the image) on my bike.

    Anybody else experienced this?

  3. I've read in the service manual about using the threebond as a gasket, however when MotoRapido first serviced mine, they used a metal gasket. Maybe the threebond was replaced with the later gasket?
    I serviced mine recently with the gasket and it's fine, no leaks.
    Part number is: 78810651A

  6. My bike doesn't even have a gasket there and has been seeping oil all year. I've ordered the gasket and hope to be taking it with me on Friday evening when I head home for some practice this weekend.
