I noticed on the last couple of rides I have an oil leak. It's coming from the front engine cover on the right ( stator cover ? ). The guy who had the bike before me has put the R&G engine cover set on so I took that off to have a look and found that the leak is coming from one or two of the bolt holes not from the grey silicone seal or the removable cover with the torx fitting in. It looks to me that when the cover was put on the grey silicone seal should have gone all round the bolt hole but it's only gone round the outer edge of the hole so oil can still seep out. My question is ... Is it easy to pop this cover off with oil in the bike ? Does most of the oil go back to the sump when the engine isn't running and would be below the level of the cover when I take it off?
