Piocked up a 80 GS 1000 G with 4K miles, leaking oil from everywhere

[850 Combat]

Some leaks are more difficult to repair than others. One of my 1000G's began to weep a little from the cylinder base last spring. That is a bitch. A valve cover isn't too bad, depending upon how much of it is stuck to the head.

A little bit of information on what is leaking would be useful.

I believe there is a mandatory re-torque of the top end after initial running. If it was never done, it will leak, especially if it was run for a while and then sat for an extended period. I'd re-torque everything according to the manual and then see if it is still leaking. My 850 was the same until I tightened it up. I've had no leaks once done. I went ahead and ran the valves later just to check, but mine were all within specs.
