My Connie has been leaking for a long time and I've finally ordered the o-rings I think will fix it. I originally thought it was leaking from the water pump area. But the more I looked at it and put up with the leak I realized it was leaking from somewhere higher up on the engine. The next logical point from how the oily areas look and where I have to clean is the starter shaft. There are two o-rings-the smaller one is the likely culprit but since they are about the same price and around $6 each from BikeBandit (shameless plug-I am an affiliate marketer, click a banner and buy lots of stuff!) I got them both. In the past, BikeBandit has gotten parts to me very quickly, sometimes the next day from ordering. Since I ordered late at night on Tuesday I'll bet they come in Thursday.
Wish me luck-I will probably install them Friday night.
In the wind or in the air!
