I have noticed there has been a grime buildup here as I have been riding. I suspect an oil or fluid leak, what common things can I check based off of location.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

If torque of those bolts is correct, clean it, run it and look at it. Suspect are the half moons of f and the valve cover gasket. Easy and if so, check and adjust the valves when in there. Bad would be head gaskets if the latter, you'll need seals and a base cover gasket and much more time.
Supercub, please start your own thread in this sub forum with your question, rather than jacking someone else’s thread. Please include the year and exact model of your bike. Generally, the answer to your question is yes, you can remove the head and cylinders with the engine still in the frame. Others with more experience will tell you if it’s easier to do that in frame, or with the engine on a workbench. I’ve only done it with the engine on a workbench.
Welcome to the forum. You’re welcome.
