Author Message   Chasespeed Posted on Friday, August 03, 2007 - 09:24 pm:        RANT ON... The damn rear exhuast pushrod is LEAKING.. AGAIN... I dont know what it is about that rear one, its on its 3rd seal(lower), and it still leaks... The only damn leak I have right now, and I want it STOPPED... I am about to silicon the sh*t outta it, and hope it holds... Any thoughts??? Chase   Wile_ecoyote Posted on Friday, August 03, 2007 - 09:40 pm:        Use high temp stuff and clean it thoroughly before goopin it up. I got a gixxer that has plenty of "external" oil seals. LOL   Chasespeed Posted on Friday, August 03, 2007 - 10:00 pm:        I got it...finally... Had to re-position the damn thing 6 times... but, I got it... I have a leak free bike for the first time... Though, I think its going to smell like carb cleaner for a long while.... Oh well... Gonna go for a ride later, you know, to make sure all is well... Chase   Tattoodnscrewd Posted on Friday, August 03, 2007 - 10:03 pm:        I have the same thing on my S1 ... only in the front .. and only at very high rpm's and very high speed (120-130) ... got to get around to fixing it one of these days ... Let's hope mine doesn't take 6 tries ... messed up part is mine are brand new (when we built the top end I used all new seals and gaskets ... )   Buellgekk Posted on Saturday, August 04, 2007 - 03:21 am:        Chase, if you get a chance, install these from NRHS. They will never leak again, much tighter, if have them too: http://www.nrhsperformance.com/partsvalvetrain.sht ml   Chasespeed Posted on Saturday, August 04, 2007 - 10:53 am:        Gekk, I was thinking about those last night, while I was jacking around with this crap.... Since they are somewhat affordable, I will probably snag them at some point. Chase   Chasespeed Posted on Saturday, August 04, 2007 - 01:41 pm:        DAMNNIT!!!!!!!!!!!! Went out to move some things in the garage, getting ready for a car to come by... and there is a HUGE puddle under the bike... and oil all down the front side of the cam cover... More info to follow later... I am sick of this crap... Chase   Radon30 Posted on Saturday, August 04, 2007 - 06:49 pm:        i have a set of nallin pushrod tube bases still in the package if interested let me know   Chasespeed Posted on Saturday, August 04, 2007 - 06:54 pm:        PM sent.... Well, confirmed... ALL pushrod seals are leaking at the base.... THIS IS B/S!!!! SO... knowing how the crankcase vents... IS is possible that the case ISNT venting pressure fast enough, and its blowing the base seals???? BUT, wouldnt other seals go first? I dont know... I going to try to band-aid it with clear silicon for now, hoping that takes care of it... Chase   Natexlh1000 Posted on Saturday, August 04, 2007 - 11:10 pm:        Those aren't supposed to be under pressure. The pushrod tubes are like drains. I think you're right about the breather.   Radon30 Posted on Monday, August 06, 2007 - 01:06 am:        Chasespeed i delete your email, how about $30 shipped to you. If your still interested send me another PM with shipping info. I do not have a pay pal account so transaction would have to be a money order or something. Let me know   Chasespeed Posted on Monday, August 06, 2007 - 08:52 am:        PM sent... Chase
