Got some oil out of the head plastic seal. It runs fine and I don't notice any smoke. What do ya think it need ?

that little plastic cap is just siliconed in there, mine leaked like a mofo til I did a top end rebuild and siliconed the heck out of it putting it back together, havent had a problem since, not a drop, just used RV high temp silicone

those things are a pain, just take the valve cover off and then take that little cap out and coat it in the sealant then it will never leak again

You can also use HONDA BOND. That stuff is amazing!

Thanks.

So you don't think it needs a top end?

What signs do you look for when you need a rebuild.

i got that problem on my beartracker :D i love that piece of junk.

other than being unsightly i dont think it hurts it as long as you keep the oil toped off.
