Bash plate bolt

[Brendan082]

Hey all
Whilst taking the bash plate off my bike I find that one of the bolts that mount the engine to the frame are acting as a secondary sump plug I dont think it's right can anyone confirm?, it has had a oil leak since day 1 which was 2 weeks ago today and I now know this is where the leak is coming from...

well drain all the oil clean your bike and inspect it closely

take some pics and post them up here

it almost sounds like you have used a bolt that is 2 long and punctured the case

yep iv seen it happen, just use a bit of sealant on the thread so it doesnt leak..
