Time for a Sealing??

I'm suspicious that this image shows that it's time to pull the engine and install completely new gaskets. Your opinions?

Why? Oil soiling your otherwise pristine bike?

It's been a loooooong winter.

A few less spots you have to polish.

As pessimism said, it sure is a shame that you actually RIDE your bike when you could keep it locked up at home and polished.
In COMPLETELY stock form, of course. Like some members.

Is that oil from an hour long ride, or six years accumulation?

I'm thinking the oil leakage isn't half as bad as the brake dust all over he back of the engine.

Yes, this is the question.

If the oil isn't getting on your clothes, and you are not picky about cosmetics, then I'd wait a while to see if the leak(s) gets worse.

It's accumulated since December. I hadn't really noticed the oil until the last couple of weeks.
Brake dust? Interesting. When I checked them in November, they were st least 50% and I ride like a grandma. Guess I should check them again.

Thanks! I have cool plans for them when I rebuild the bike!
