Valve cover gasket leaks oil onto headers which begins smoking and poses a fire /environmental hazard. Oil also sprays onto tires causing a loss of traction. This equipment malfunction poses a serious safety hazard to the rider and others.
I took my bike in because of a loud tick and a small oil leak about 1 month after buying it new. The shot worked on it and tightened all of the bolts. My bike started leaking oil from the valve gasket so I took it in last week. Now 1 week later, it is leaking oil from the head gasket.
