I noticed a cpl of drips of oil under the bike a few weeks ago. Then the other day I had a look and there seems to be oil coming out of the clutch cover.
1. Should I be sh1tting myself that it is damaged or is it just a leaky gasket?
I have been meaning to do a clutch kit on the bike for a while now so maybe this is the incentive to just get to it.
2. Is it difficult to do a full clutch kit on a 99?
Any tips or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Have you tried nipping up all of the clutch cover bolts?

asking before you screw up shows more brains than asking after you screwed up LOL
they run a wet clutch system using the engine motor oil.

If you are talking about the clutch cover as in the cover with the glass sight in it for checking the engine oil, then oil leaking from here is engine oil. Get a mate who is handy with bikes to take a quick look or post up some pics so as we can ensure you receive the right advice. Paul.

Nigel "03SYD" was also losing clutch fluid when he dropped by the other day - I'm assuming the hydraulic fluid.
Maybe it's an age thing?? co-incidence?
Not generally aware of this happening. Had things apart lately?
As Paul said, put up a few pics.

Guys, I think Buhjones is talking aboout OIL leaking from the clutch cover not the BRAKE FLUID from the sleave cylinder.
