Posts: 22 Noble, Oklahoma Gender:	Savage Leak!! 07/27/12 at 15:08:43 I keep hearing folks refer to the world famouse Savage leak. What is it and where? I was actually looking to buy a second Savage and in the post it stated world Famouse Savage leak? I dont have any on my existing bike so I am wondering.

Reply #1 - 07/27/12 at 15:21:15 must be talking about the head plug leak. in the cavity on the left side of the header. there's a head nut that needs to be torque every so often. access is under the head cover thru a rubber plug. apply a little rtv to the plug before it's installed and you won't have a leak.

I just looked at the bike and I see oil Leaking from the back rear left corner dribbling on to the starter. May be a easy fix if its that plug then I guess.

Well I went ahead and bought it. I noticed he had it plum full of oil. The sight glass when stood straight up was filled above the sight glass. I wiped down where the oil was and drove it home. After I got it home I I drained some oil off and wiped down the oil again. I putted around town a bit on it and there dont seem to be as much oil present??? But if need be I will chase down the leak and correct it. It also had a problem with the turn signals. New bulbs and that was was fixed. I tookits seat and put it on my 97 that was ripped. I think I did great for the price. Wink
