swingarm oil leak, from the swingarm link...

[jammer84_03]

Well, got the swingarm powerwashed, and then nailed it with a coat ofsprayable powder to trace my oil leak.

Come to find out, its comming from the right side where it looks like there is a removable section of the arm itself. There are 4 hex bolts holding iton, and im curious if there is a seal there that might be leaking? anyone have any ideas?

Take the section off, maybe it's something that got spilled before and is seeping out from in between the two pieces of metal.

No seals though.

no, its not spilled from before, its all fresh leaks...

There shouldn't be any fresh oil from the removable portion (to get the belt on and off). It had to have come from somewhere else. On the 06 and newer anyways, there's no way for oil to leak from there unless there is a factory defect and the front most bolt hole got over drilled too deep or a small chance of someone stuck in a bolt too long and over tightening the crap outta it.

Thats a possibility, lemme take a pic of what I have running down. hopefully it is just the overtighten and a lil thread lock will do teh trick

[jammer84_03]

Well, took it apart, looks like baja was right... Now its back to the drawing board. Hopefully it is just something simple...

possibility its something with the 2 oil hoses running from the swing to the rightside of the engine??
