Just bought a new 07 1200 custom. Rode it home from the Dealer - 60 miles away, as I pulled it into the garage, I looked down and it was leaking like a sive...Acutally it was the gasket for the Inpection Window cover that was leaking... I loaded the bike upand droveright back to the dealer... Theytold me thatthey had afew sportsters do this...the Dealer even told me they had one that they had to replace the plate on... They promptly replaced the gasket and said let them know if it still leakes... Well it's been raining for two days and the wife has not had a chance to ride it yet to see it that fixed the leak...

My question is has anyone else had this problem ....

Thanks

Eric

 

I haven't had this problem.But since they replaced the gasket, I assume they checked to make sure the o-ring on each of the 2 screws were in place and in good condition. I would also want to make sure the tranny oil level is correct. Did they top off the fluid level to compensate for the leaked tranny oil?

 

They topped off the fluids and it seems to be holding. I guess time will tell
