Found out that I've got a dodgy indicator, handy when your leading a ride also decided that I really do need to get some baffles, I've the sound but I think there is just a little too much of it.

Having had a couple of engine problems with Triumph in the past I've decided not to risk turning my IL4 into Kwak's latest triple
I might be fussing over nothing. There isn't much of a leak and it stopped very quickly but I prefer to have someone take a look at it. Especially with a track day coming up

Definitely worth getting it serviced then and bike will be tip top for summer when you get it back.

Changed the hose on the hydraulic clutch and gave the bike a good check over before a run out tomorrow with the new Brembo clutch and brake master cylinders and sigma slipper clutch for the first time.
Struggling to find someone to deal with the bike. Mike is fully booked. The place local to me I trust can't get me in until the 14th. I've got a track day on the 15th.

Where is the leak, can you see the source? Is it much everyday?
The leak is small. I only noticed it on Sunday but I'v eno idea how long it's been there. Oil level is low. Oil is coming from near the top of the engine block but I can't see the source without removing the tank and the fairings. It's on the right hand side but at the front of the block.
I've spoken with Mike. He reckons it's a split gasket. I'll be ok to ride it if I don't go mad, so I'm taking it to him on Saturday. He'll drop it off when he's done the work.
