    you can remove the valve cover and apply some hi-temp RTV to the round side of the half-moon plug, but if the shop did a valve adjustment, they should (IMO) put the thing back together correctly, ie. so it doesn't leak, but it may be faster to just do it yourself

      leak

      Hi Dave, I agree with you, I could do it myself even if I have to take the valve cover off and re do, however the guy at the repair shop told me to bring it back asap, and luckily I have my 1983 GS750E to ride which I enjoy very much.

        Yeah, those half moon rubbers are notorious for aging and starting to weep.
        Removing the valve cover and dabbing some silicone is the easiest way.

        I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. H.D.T.
