Title: V7c Tank removal
Post by: NHMike on July 18, 2016, 09:08:24 AM

I will be removing my tank to get at the air box, is it as easy as it looks? Remove seat, remove bolt that holds tank in place, prop up tank? I have been getting more drips of oil coming from breather hose under bike on right side, (starting to concern me). I figured I best get right to the source, and I'm  guessing it has
something to do with air box?

Thanks for any input.

Mike

it is this easy however, you'll also have to disconnect the fuel line. Have confidence, and yank. My advice is watch the YouTube on how, so you don't snap it. WD40 helps.

As for the oil leak, mine does the same; although hadn't always. It started after high rpm, then a puff of white smoke. Still not certain what happened that day. And now, no matter what I try, I cannot get it to stop. If my oil level is the least bit high, it leaks. If I run high rpm for a time, it leaks. Searched everywhere, no one knows why or how to fix it. What's strange is it never did it for over 10,000 miles, and now always.

Very strange?  I wind this little motor up pretty good too. I put 1.8 liter of oil in, like your supposed too, and it drips out after I park it. I have been checking oil
level when cold and hot, seems fine so far. I still want to inspect air box just satisfy my curiosity I guess.

Thanks.

I don't believe you can remove or disassemble the air box.
