Help needed, bike problem

[windless]

Hi guys, got a problem with my gsxr750 k6, just did stationary start to warm up bike since 2 days never ride le.. warm up till 50plus degrees i started reving it.. then saw engine oil leaking from bottom of cat convertor, a leak from a crack i suppose.. it leaks whenever i rev it.. then i quickly went to check the engine oil glass sight.. tot it was empty, so i put the bike upright and check again, 70% of glass sight.. and the oil seems much dirter than the last time i check it.. only change engine oil 1300km ago..

 

Anyone know what's wrong? can i still ride to a bike shop or should tow it? tks tks

If the leak is slow enough, i suppose you could keep revs low and ride to the motortiam. You may want to top up some oil first.

If it's leaking then just get it fixed. No two ways about it.

 

Like what bro spaiduhz said, if the leak isn't too bad then you may want to take the risk and ride to the shop. It is normal for the oil to cover approx 70% of the glass and also natural for the oil to appear more dirty than before, even if it was merely 100km since your last oil change. This is especially so if you have not been using your bike for a prolonged period as this gives the oil time to flow back to the reservoir in a cooled state, and flowing with it, any impurities or particles in the engine case.

 

Just go find the hole and "plug" it.
