oil leak

Post by grumpy1 » Wed Mar 15, 2017 1:55 pm

howya all. Can anyone sort an oil leak problem for me? Serviced the bike and now have leak. The only thing i found funny was the oil filter holder. Oil seal groove on that seems about 13mm round but on the engine the groove seems to be 17mm which was the size of the oring I got in kit. What am I not seeing here? Engine is actually a tdm 850 one fitted by previous owner.

There's a little brass bush that sits into the 17mm oil feed hole.
Did you put that back in ???
