Sorry to hear about that, but at least through telling us your experience we
can try to avoid such pitfalls.

I have limited experience at best compared to most of the people on the list, but I was told by my local dealer to back off, then re-torque the heads on my Eldo. Did as instructed, and was rewarded with a new oil leak. Dealer then told me that was common on the older bikes, and it was better just to check the torque without backing off. Can cause the o-rings to leak. Gee thanks Mr. Dealer. --- Sponsor's Message -------------------------------------- Wanna Gorge Yourself on Food? Get the facts first.
