rm 125 water leak

[barragan]

hi
i recently put a new piston in it but has developed a water leak into the engine.

the head blew so i put new o rings in but water is still getting into the crank case. the base gasket is ok so where els could it be getting in.

thanks josh

sounds a bit like water seals in the crank not sure but that is the first thing that springs to mind. do ya have a lot of smoke even when the bike is warm?

 

[barragan]

it only runs with no coolant in it so i havent realy run it for more than a min

take head off make sure o rings seated correctly

drain tranny oil see what colour it is

Did you replace the water pump seals? That's where I'd start.

well you could have a cracked cylinder wall allowing water to leak in from the water jacket but try all new head gaskets in it, it may help--Ethan
