Leaking oil - on a trip, help needed!

[Lawriejones1]

Hi all, am at Stonehenge on the bike, writing on an iPhone - isn't technology great!

Anyway, I have a small oil left from a bolt on the left hand rocker. It's a difficult to access size 14... There is no noticeable drop in oil level or performance.

I assume the bolt wasn't torqued properly...

Any help much appreciated!

I'd second that - and add "you've never owned a Ural either"

Wouldn't be too fussed about it.

I'm going to assume that too. Hope this helps.

Mine ran for eight hundred miles with no oil in the sight glass. It didn't kill it
