Oil Leak

[bwringer]

Thanks! I drained the case (reused the oil. Gonna do a few more changes to flush out the gas and re-lube everything) and pulled the switch. Sure enough; the contact nub was missing. Strained the jugs of oil/fuel that came with the bike, and found it! Spring was still in place, and after installing the contact and switch, everything functions great!
Thanks again!

I just love a happy ending!

I also have to admit it's pretty satisfying when a wild/educated guess turns out to be correct.

Thanks for reporting back -- I have no doubt this will be helpful to someone else sometime in the future.


And thanks for the pic, Rich!

Sure, now that anyone can steal my identity with my fingerprint.

Look it up by your bike year and model.

The o-ring part number is 09280-26005; as with many (but not all) Suzuki part numbers for fasterners, seals, o-rings, etc., the 26 highlighted in the latter part indicates a 26mm nominal inside diameter ("09280" just seems to mean "o-ring"). As far as thickness, it's impossible to say without measuring the parts or a new o-ring.
