Hi Everyone,

I have a bit of a leak coming from were adjustment is made to the cam belt on my XS1100. Was wondering if I could maybe purchase a seal or use some sealant to stop it from leaking?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Mike

not sure you have a cam belt, i think it's chain. have you got a manual for it? there may be one via the sticky in the classic section and look under pioneer web site. then check to see if there is a gasket needed

Hi,

For sure its a chain !! I would guess the leak is from the adjuster which 9 out of 10 was someone tightening the bolt up to tight & putting a crack in the adjuster case or over tightening the cover & having a leak from the tensioner shaft but I would love to see an XS11 with a cam belt !

Regards Jim
