Hi

I am new to this list and have just bought a blue 1997 Saxon tour. It now runs fine but it has a small oil leak on the shorter oil pipe to the tank in the frame. It seems to weep where the pipe goes into the enging. The other point is are there tyres that are lower? ( Not being that tall @ 5' 3") The rear tyre is a Michelin 350/16 M45. The front is a Vee Rubber 300/18.

Thanks for your help

Julian

these engines are hard to kill but oil leaks are a problem

when you do that you can try some sealer on the oil line
