hi all,i dont know if anyone else has had this prob,but ive not seen it mentioned anywhere i dont think.i have allspeeds fitted on my 350lc,they seem ok where they bolt to the barrels,but where the pipes attach to them,i get oil blowing out.i have the springs fitted,so im wandering if anyone else has had this did they cure it and how? this is the second set of allspeeds ive had on her,and the first ones were the same.it wouldnt bother me too much but it coats the front of the bike in oil,and my boots when its run in and i can give it some.

Mine leak So i applied Permatex hi Temp Orange Silly cone. Lived about a week until it turned into drippy orange slime. Redid it all letting it cure for a few days before using. Again the shite lived 1 single week. Sure as hell didn't work on My engine pipes. Maybe yours will be easier on the goop? Now I just wipe the the aera with a rag after riding Fairly easy and it Works!
