First oil leak....

[mynewride]

I went out to move my busa in the gym to a different location and saw a few drips on the rubber floor.... I thought that i for sure had an o-ring leaking on the oil line that attaches to the block. Figured maybe i pinched it. I changed the oil back in june. As it turns out I had the oil filter leaking. It is the first time I have ever had an oil filter leak that I installed. It was also the first amsoil filter I have ever used. Probably just a coincidence, but it sure makes me go hrm. It is by no means a major leak, but a leak none the less. I have just never had an oil filter leak.

always good to check her out before you ride...

I'm sure you made sure the surface was clear and clean and that you lubed the o-ring a little. Never had a filter leak and I hand tighten my filters only.

might sound like a silly question but you got the old o-ring off before you out the second filter on correct?
I think every one of us that does our own work has done that mistake before.

My oil filter blew it's o-ring seal about 5 miles from my house. Not good times.. I'll only buy factory or K&N filters from now on. Leaning toward factory Suzuki.
