My cbr400 had a new oil change just before i collected it a few weeks ago, and now its leaking oil,

i took it back to the the shop to have it looked and they changed the oil again and said it should'nt leak anymore, and it is still leaking. could i have a whole in my exaust or engine? i dunno.

Help appreciated
Thanks kev.

im not saying that this is it. but when i got my bike back after some work (admitidlly it was and engine out and strip job) it had a small leak. it took me ages to find it. but it turned out to be a hairline crack in the side casing. but it could be a pipe with a split or anything. sorry i cant help much more.

Where is it leaking from? Changing the oil again wont stop a leak will it? :roll:

Clean all the oil off and try and work out where it is coming from. Check the sump plug, all seals and look for any cracks.

Have you sorted the problem?

If not have you checked the oil filter and sump plug as these are the most common points for a leak following and oil change.

If you still having a problem Im sure someone here could pop and have a look. Maybe even me!

did they renew the sump washer or rubber , and oil the gasket on the filter
