ok, a week ago I noticed what appeared to be a small amount of oil that had leaked and run down the stator cover. I wiped it off and let my bike sit for a week. a week later there was no noticable oil so I decided to take it to work today. when i walked out to go home from work, I noticed the same amount of oil leaked out and run down the stator cover. I have not taken it apart yet so not sure what i am gonna find or what to expect.

has anyone had a similar problem?
would anyone know what it might be, where it might be coming from, or what i should be looking for?

any and all help will be appreciated

 

facked gasket,bolts not tightend correctly,all the above

929 are famouse for that little leak it seems everybody i know with one has it

 

+1 for cracked stator cover....it leaks after the bike been running then check those.

 

thanks i am gonna take the plastics off this weekend, will let you know what i find.

seems like the 929 has a lot of quirks and wierd noises.......definitely not gonna stop me from riding.

 

i've been lucky and haven't had any leaks yet... but i'm just now getting into some hardcore stunting. so i'm betting i will start breaking seals and other ****...

but a friend of mine had an erion, and a regular 929. both of them dropped maybe 1-2 drops of oil when parked for a few hours.
solution: double gasket

 

probalbly the gasket when you pull the stator cover off, it will not be easy, the stator is a big magnet. so pull hard it will come off.you will loose some oil,be carefull not to tighten the bolts to tight they strip easy. use a torque wrench. it only calls for around 8 lbs. good luck.

 

mine leaks on the sensor thats on the head
