foggy oil window

<< < (2/2)

Kawadougie:
I had a problem with this for a while.  I would end up with about a half an ounce of clear water in the oil each time I rode.  I run red Prestone antifreeze in the radiator so the color would be a pretty good tracer.  I finally ran a clear 3/8" vent hose vertically up into the airbox and problem is solved.  If you have a major leak the transmission oil will look like a milkshake.   :cry:

hughes:
That's a good idea to run the vent into the air box. I bet most water would come from washing or riding through water.
