August 17, 200816 yr Author hey iv got the same problem after riding for a bit the whole underside of the casing is covered in oil from the leaking DEP pipe im planning on making a copper eye shape gasket to go over the whole thing around the manifold its a bit bad how that looks like a common problem, i thought maybe gasket needed renewing but doesnt seem to be anything wrong with it, Might try what your doing with the copper washe cause the oil looks a mess defs isnt right.
August 17, 200816 yr Author Just a thought, i might try a bit of instant gasket and see how that goes 1st

August 17, 200816 yr Author Oright yeah i see what you mean cause it doesnt seem to fit perfectly flush does it, It came with washers or the flange but when you put them on they get caught on the exhaust itself so dont actually fit so i used them as washers else where lol But yeah it does seem to be missing a flange.

August 17, 200816 yr Author Well before the dep pipe i got about 80mph now with it absolute pinned about 85mph (nearly maxing the speedo) but better aceleration. I only found this by racing an rx125 and dare held it there 4 longer than 2seconds lol so i rarely go over 75mph to be honest. you?
March 31, 200915 yr i solved the problem with my exhaust leaking with i rubber ring, i got 1 that was just a lil bit bigger than the hole and forced it in and i have had no problem since, so thats another option for ya
