I'M STARTING UP MY 93 ZX7R LAST WEEK FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR AND I GOT SMOKE COMMING OUT OF MY EXHAUST, SO I TOOK MY FAIRINGS OFF TO GIVE IT A LOOK AND I SEEN OIL LEAKING FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY EXHUAST..I FOLLOWED THE OIL FROM MY EXHUST UP TO THE MANIFOLD...THE OIL IS GOING IN THE SECOND MANIFOLD PIPE EVERY TIME I START MY BIKE AND I DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHY..CAN SOMEONE HELP ME? THANX

 

Manifold? You talking about the banjo bolts to the heads that are leaking?

 

I BELIEVE SO..IT'S ONLY LEAKING FROM THE SECOND PIPE(FROM LEFT TO RIGHT) WHEN I START MY BIKE UP AND DON'T KNOW WHY..IT'S WASN'T LEAKING BEFORE I GARAGED IT LAST YEAR.

 

You will have two lines on cylinders #2 and #3 on the head. Standard banjo bolts with crush washers. Try snugging the seeping one down to torque and try that. Otherwise just get another crush washer. That is if the line itself is ok.

 

I WENT TO A BIKE SHOP A COUPLE DAYS AGO AND I TOLD ONE OF THE MECHANICS MY PROBLEM AND HE SAID IT IS MY VALVE COVER GASKET

 

that's posible. look to see if it's leaking from the top of the motor if it is then it's the valve cover gasket.

 

I could agree with that one also. So exactly where is the trail of oil?
