Made ya'll look didn't eye.
Replaced the stock bars on my RG two weeks ago and put 12" Ape's on her. When re-routing the clutch cable I forgot to zip tie it back to the frame tube, here is the result.
Cable found its way between the filter and V. Regulator and the vibration wore the paint off the filter housing and cracked the housing. I was on a run from Wilmington to Winston-Salem and noticed an oil leak when I parked in Winston.
Couldn't find the problem checked the oil, level was okay, so I rode her home. About two in the morning on the way home I stop for gas and have oil all over the side of the bike and my leg. Checked level and was still above the add a qt. line, only an hour from home and couldn't see the problem, so I prayed and rode her into the barn. Got up this morning, and found the filter was cracked. Check out pics.
A little oil makes a big mess!
