    1980 Suzuki GS1100 oil leak....Is this hard to fix?

    I'm a novice with this stuff....hope some of you can help. My bike has an oil leak...Is this hard to fix? I'm thinking its an old gasket that needs replacing.

    Thanks

    Where is it leaking? Is it the normal head gasket leak? If so, first try torqueing the headbolts properly. Oil leaks are seldom "hard" to correct. Sometimes getting to the gasket or seal that needs replaced is a pain, but it's not normally technically hard. Just tedius work.

        I'm afraid i'm not being very helpful. Can you see where the oil leak originates? Is it coming from the drain plug? Perhaps dripping from the front of the bottom of the engine? One of the side covers, etc. There are a lot of places oil can leak and come from the bottom of the engine. Some of them (like a side cover) can be very easy to fix.
