Hylomar works great for oil leaks
Topic starter
I had a small leak from my transmission. It looked like a bit of the factory RTV sealer between the case halves had worked out. To do it right would have meant a complete teardown of the bike to remove the engine/transmission assembly. Not a pretty prospect.
I had tried Permatex RTV and later their spray on sealer. Of course, i thoroughly cleaned the surface first. Didn't work. Someone on ADVRider mentioned Hylomar. I finally found some after searching the internet. After swallowing the price ($$$) I ordered it. I put on a wide bead over the area of the leak, let it dry and repeated.
It has worked and no more leak!
If you have a hard to stop small oil leak, remember HYLOMAR. 😉
