Hello, I am new to this forum and am in need of some advice. I have a 1974 CB750 with some rather high miles on it 94K I believe. It leaks oil from the left side of the engine at a fairly steady rate, during and after riding. The previous owner said it had to do with some O ring seals. It looks like its coming from the head gasket to me, although the bike has good compression and power.
Does anyone know what could be causing this and how I should go about fixing it? Also would I have to pull the engine or could I leave it in the frame?
Aloha
