dealer said not a problem
so I will go with that im going to look for kawasaki email see what they say still got 1 year warranty on the bike so I have time, if it blows then I will fix it I dont like it either but professional mechanic said dont worry:rolleyes: |
I call BS. Find another dealer. Call Kawi and throw them under the bus. Why should you deal with that? What if it blows while you're out on a trail? It's leaking and it shouldn't be leaking and they should fix it.

yeah all the bikes ive had I never remember anything around that drip hole
and I think the bike I did I just replaced the pump or something just too long ago to remember and once in a while there is a touch of wetness there but not enough to leak on the ground maybe im lazy and accepted what they had to say, nothing to worry about I wont have to worry about it on the trails, I dont go offroad so if it blows it will be on the streets, so not a life or death thing and I cant find any e mail on kawasaki page it all says bring to dealer or call I would rather be able to send pics to an email so I dont know maybe if I get bored with the bike long enough to have a week or more downtime I would bring to another place to have them look at it im thinking maybe they dont want to work on it because its not really leaking constantly and they wont get paid to fix unless its really leaking I have no idea how warranties work, I would think they dont want to turn down work if they knew for sure it would get paid for or they just suck and are lazy? I guess it wouldnt hurt to get a 2nd opinion from the place close to me just sucks to loose my only freeway legal bike, I havent had one in 2 years and now its nice to be able to ride places faster if needed |

yeah I know its like the hole on a car water pump
usually means the seal? or bearing inside is going bad? I just imagine the seal probably allows a drop through here and there, and it was like this the day I bought the bike before I brought it home. I had thought it was just water spots from them cleaning it because I remember seeing the white spots near the pegs so its been doing that leak since brand new im just not sure if its really a problem because its not a constant leak but I happen to be going to another bike store today so I will see what they say |
went over to another dealer near my house
just to get a 2nd opinion they also say dont worry I guess they see alot of dirtbikes when super hot leak a little coolant out of that same spot and he said since its based on a dirtbike engine its normal only worry if its dripping all the time could be water passing out of the seal |
