      thanks bro...
      It does feel great to have a tank of petrol between your legs & explosions just under it.

        when you open the screw on main stand if there is plenty of oil gushing out, then crank oil seal is suspect, otherwise overfill is the problem.
        psr sir,
        i removed the big screw...
        when on center stand, oil doesnot gush out... it drips very very slowly...
        when on side stand, oil dripping speed increases...
        but when i lean the bike more, say 50degrees or less, oil gushes out...
        what should i do?
        please do check the pics posted by Aneesh@4GHz on behalf of me...

          Correct me if am wrong sir, but doesnt excess oil flow out of the tranny breather tube? Cause thats what happened to me when I filled 1L.

          Dont spill more oil. Just replace the bolt and O ring if necessary and the issue will be solved.

          I remember Aneesh bro saying that you've blocked the tranny breather tube, if thats the case then psr sir's explanation applies.

            what is this "tranny breather tube"? i had closed a tube comming from below the tank (not from the tank) to the air filter... but that's removed now as per Aneesh's recommendation...

            i tried putting back the screw & o ring but the leak still happens when i have a bumpy ride... very very small leak...

            & lastly does anyone know what is the worst that could happen if i don't replace the crank oil seal ??? (assuming this leak is due to that seal)

              you seem to have crank shaft oil seal problem..do not remove or block the breather then also this problem will arise.
              You can apply three bond liquid gasket re-tighten the screw and continue to ride...no problem.

                thank you psr ji...
                is the "breather" you mentioned here the small tube to the air filter?
                now there is no blocking to that tube (if i am referring to the correct tube)...
                so i should leave it open like that? i am currently not able to connect it to the air filter as the stock filter had been removed & a conical one has been installed...
                is it ok to just leave the tube open or should i put any filtering material at the end of the tube...

                  Filtering material is necessary. Because engine pushes air out of the crankcase in pulses, so there's a suction pulse after every ejection pulse. Therefore theres a chance of dirt being sucked into the crankcase during the suction pulse. The Bullet's duckbill breather tube is a suitable replacement if you've already removed your filter box. Many ZMA users who have removed the filter box are using this method.

                    i see...
                    so is the duckbill breather tube a direct fit or are there any mods?
                    can you please guide me in installing bullet's breather tube by providing pics or links?
                    thanks...

                      Have'nt personally used it, but many ZMA users have claimed it to be a direct fit. If by chance its abit bigger then use a hose clamp(The small round thing seen on the pic.).

                          went to RE spares... they said that this type of breather is used for old REs & is not in production now...
                          so i went to a local spares shop & got it...

                          i've connected it to the old breather tube as shown below... is it ok ???

                                Seems ok but does it have any filtering element in the end?? Also how much you paid for it?
