Motorcycle Repair: condensation in primary, condensation, shovel


Question
hi i got a 83 tourglide classic 1340 shovel with 5spd trans. and when i pull my derby cover off there is always moister build up on the inside? not sure what to do to fix it any advise would be greatly appreciated.

thanks mike.

Answer
Your primary is a closed system so I am not sure how moisture is getting on there. I would drain the primary, pull the cover and let it sit sor a day, so the moisture will dry up. Then put the primary cover back on with all new gaskets
Good luck and happy riding
Mike
