My name is Trygve Klem, and I live outside Lismore, NSW, Australia. I have recently bought a CB 750 SS 1978 model. Which I have started to sort out the various areas needing some attention. When I opened the dynamo cover where the stator is, some oil leaked out. Is there supposed to be oil in there. (as you can guess, it's a long time since I have owned a motorbike.

Hello from all in the UK.

I don't think that a little bit of oil under the alternator cover is bad or uncommon.

You will probably meet more Aussies on or sister (global) site: www.sohc4.net - if you haven't found it already, it looks the same as this (uses the same software). Use the same username so that we all recognise you!

Thats very unusual as they are extremely robust and normaly only get damaged by accidents
