Slight oil leak.. was created by vach
I'm about to buy a bike but there is an issue.. There is a small oil drip out of what I think is the crank seal where the ignition points are. Is that easy to replace or does the motor have to be pulled apart?

If you would tell us which bike you're talking about, it would really help.

In any case, are you sure you aren't referring to the stator wires coming out of the alternator? If so, the repair isn't tough.

This bike.. It's 79 KZ650 w/ a 750 motor. 810cc Wiseco kit.
the head has been ported not milled and has stock kz750 cams. There is a small leak that puts oil right where the electronic ignition is. I think that is the crank bolt. I'm going to get a picture very soon.
