Not that I know of, something else to look forward to I guess...NOT!Interesting you have not sprung a leak from the dynamo junction

Many thanks Bill, yet another thing I was unaware of, I’m on such a steep learning curve but loving it, everyone on the forum very helpful and patient! Yes, enough of a gap to drain the oil, the case went back ok including the original gasket and so far no leaks from the joint. Checked the chain tension before running it and it was fine.Nigel, When you pulled the primary case away a nats, To drain the oil,
Did you first loosen the Primary chain ?,
Because the tension blade pivot is slotted half in the outer case and half in the Crank case,
You may have had enough to get the oil out, But just check the chain tension,
You don't want the chain too tight, It can upset the clutch.
Cheers bill.
Many thanks Bill, I’ll remember that.Well done, If you ever take the clutch and primary case off, It's best to loosen the chain first.
As when you put it back on the you have to locate the rear tensioner pivot in the outer cover,
easy enough as long as you know about it.
Good Luck, Bill.
Well I’d say that’s quite subtle actually. Great how owners come up with their own designs and solutions. I’m hoping to get away without a breather but we’ll see. My bike was restored in 2009 but not by me, it’s covered 11k miles presumably without a chaincase breather. Perhaps it was something I did that caused the leak but time will tell.Not exactly subtle, mine is JUST visible exiting under the footrest mount in the first picture and the black plastic pipe going down the back of the rear footrest plate in the 2nd.

Nigsey, When I said not exactly subtle I was referring to the picture Cyborg posted earlier with the sprocket cover with a fitting in the middle sticking straight out.Well I’d say that’s quite subtle actually.
