Erik, What was your fix for this G3/G4 leak please?

And what was the total wine consumption to find correct cork for kickstart bore?

Three corks in the bore for the left side kickstart.You have to grind the corks a Little bit in Diameter and you have to boil them to make them soft.I used Chianti classico superiore from Fattoria la vialla , Toscana , Italia. Regards Erik

So, not leaking at G3/G4 rather oil from primary was flowing down the kick start shaft bore?

It was no oil from the Primary drive ,it was Motor oil. Maybe the case is pourous in that area or the crankcase halfes are not oiltight. what Counts is that it is a clean bike now.Erik
