Kawasaki originally glued the sight glasses in to prevent that from happening.

Personally I've never glued them and (touch wood) never had one come out, check the condition of the thread.

Dump oil on rear Wheel

Yes Pauls bike looked rather oily. Not recommended on the rear wheel area!!

Two stroke oil on rear tyre NOT RECOMMENDED

Left corners ok,right corners a bit dodgy :shock: :lol:

Not had a good look at bottle yet but has been ok for about two years and only recently had a slight leak so tightened a little and had problems since :?
I had heard that the worshops used to glue the oil sight windows but i am not too keen an that as the original bottle sight had been glued and on looking never ran out of oil...........oil hole was blocked :!:
Will strip,clean and degrease everything again and try and work out whats going on :smt017

Thanks for the info to date :smt023 .Any more ideas on how to get over this problem :?:
