Motorcycle Repair: Leak, hd sportster, sportster 1200


Question
I have a HD Sportster 1200.  There is a leak from the rear rocker box.  It looks like it is probably a problem with a gasket and not a crack.  What do you think?

Thanks,
DeAnn


Answer
You are probably correct.
the best way to find a leak is to, first, clean the area. Get some deoderant that has baby powder in it. After the area dries completly spray it with the deoderant. Now start the bike and the area that leaks will turn black.
Good luck and happy riding
