Default Re: Curvy clutch cover prep

I did exactly as Embee did, check it's flat-ish - emery the worst of it, remove and inspect o-ring clean out grooves, apply an adhesive lightly to the grooves pop the oring in one and tighten up evenly (starshape torquing).
I ued some old school redstuff, hermaphrodite whatsit - it never leaked again. A guy I worked with at the time assured me regular bathroom silicone would do the same job...what Embee says is probably the best choice.

You can talcum your bike to be sure where the drip is coming from (I had both leaks at once )
