I'm getting ready to start the gasket replacement to stop the oil leaks around the head and jugs. There has to be better/great idea things that should be done while in work.....Any hints? I have access to a manual machine shop( millers,lathes, ect.) have rebuilt mopars, green status applies to the 1981 GS1100 my wife told me not to buy- I wonder why divorce lawyers are well off... Anyway metric sockets ready to go- weather here in NYC is getting warm and the gas tank is full......Spend twice as much and as long to do it right the first time.... Yeah- sparkly

So where's it leaking???

Or do you just like tearing stuff apart?

Don't fix it if it ain't broke.

Unless you want to.

head leak

Leaking from under head on right side center, below #1 exhaust port, rear of head between 2+3, yeah just there....

by the way...

Yeah there is a lot of spare time around here... Trying to get a little insight to my passion with motorcycles while finding the time to put one girl through grad school, another to Brandeis and all I want is to ride my bike that has an issue. 'Tearing stuff apart' sounds like a great day.......not. Thanks but no thanks

You need head gasket, rocker cover , base gasket and 4 barrel o-rings, probably should replace rings whilst in there.
