Oil leak - further investigation

[Corny Gizmo]

Hi guys,

The other day I mentioned I had an oil leak on my 99' curvy, it's only a few drops here and there but it's hard to find where it's coming from.

Tonight I've had the tank up for something else and found oil virtually everywhere and a tube that is disconnected from the airbox, could this be the culprit?

Any help much appreciatedhttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/08/03/jabyvata.jpg

Yes.

Reconnect the hose. It is the crank breather hose oil can travel up the tube into the air box and either find its way back down to the engine or be sucked in and burned off. If they become disconnected you can quickly paint your bike a shade of oil. Once the hose is reconnected wash the bike to clean the oil off, check and where required top up the engine oil then take it for a ride to ensure that the leak is no more.
