Just found a leak
#9
Ok, just answered my own question. The cover is well above the sump, and also above the oil sight window when the bike is on the sidestand. So, I'm sure I can remove it without much spillage. Just six screws, can't be that bad.

Strange and off-topic, but there was a shooting right behind my shop that apparently took place just minutes before I arrived and pushed my CB through the back door this morning. The police have had my back door sealed off ever since, so I have nothing better to do than stare at my bike. If I can borrow a car outside of the police cordon area, I can go get some sealant and just take care of it now!

And yes, 2021, and brand new toilets leak right out of the box. The explanation that the lady gave me was that the toilets sit in warehouses that get very hot and very cold, and that the rubber seals can get brittle. Huh. How do they stand up to being constantly submerged, I wonder.
