How do you fix a dirt bike oil leak?

The bolt where its leaking from looks ok. Is thier a way to stop the leak?How do you fix a dirt bike oil leak?
Which bolt ? If it's a case cover, a little silicone might, just might, help. There may be an O ring behind it or a crack in the gasket. Start with some silicone. I've seen brand new


motorcycles with leaking bolts that required only a bead of


silicone around the top of the bolt , then retorque the bolt.


Allow the silicone to set up just a bit, then retorque. If not


you are looking at a gasket or more. But it would really help


your answer by letting us know , what year, model , make the


bike is and what bolt it is that is leaking...


Good Luck to you....How do you fix a dirt bike oil leak?
its called a gasket you could however try to use some rtv gasket maker and pull the bolt out squirt some rtv in it and re fasten the bolt


good luck
Yeah I would replace the gasket and put some type of temporary silicone sealant on there and then tighten up the drain bolt real good.
