[QUOTE="joedrum, post: 13668, member: 98"] it could be the tack cable but you might want to check the oil it might be over full and the leak coiuld be coming from the crankcase breather .....they willdo that at high speed when the crankcase is over full especialy when its over full from gas filling up the crankcase my bike did that when the carbs were bad ....i hate to say that when i know all the work you have done on them..... i would dump the oil you got in there and replace .....then make sure you turn the gas off every time you stop .... what i like to do when i think about it is turn my gas off before i get home and dam near empty them by the time i park ..this may help get things right but it sure sounds like it high speed blow out to me ......after you change the oil ride it normal and lower inthe rpm zone and see if it leaks .....it probably wont .....and it may have been just overfilled with oil and no carb problem ..... hang in there kirk this sat for a long time right its going to take some time for it to right itself no big deal here i dont think.....
