Richard Z Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 I've suspected for some time now that my wife is cheating. The usual signs... Phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a lot recently although when I ask their names she says, "Just some friends from work. You don't know them." I always stay awake to look for who is bringing her home, but she always walks down the drive although I can hear a car driving off as if she got out around the corner. Why? Maybe she doesn't want me to see who is dropping her off. I once picked up her cell phone to see what time it was and she went crazy and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and asked why I was checking up on her. Anyway, I have never brought up the subject with her. I think deep down I didn't want to know the truth but last night again she went out and I decided to really check in on her. I decided that I was going to park the V11 Sport next to the garage and hide behind it so I could get a good view of the whole street when she comes home. It was at that moment crouching near the headlight of my v11 Sport, that I noticed a slow drip of oil coming out of the bottom of the oil pan. Is this something that I can fix myself or should I take it to the dealer? HAHA.. Richard Z.
waspp Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Terribly sorry to hear about the oil leak! It doesn't sound to serious maybe just a pan gasket, if so thats an easy fix with a new one (gasket that is). Hal
ponti_33609 Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Wow....sorry to hear. You better check out some of the oil threads that have been active here lately. Really can't let something like you are describing get out of hand (Oil Leak). LOL Bob
Mike Rother Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 The good news, the bike is fixable On the flip side, maybe some more good news (depends on your view) your marriage may need more than a mechanic! Great story btw but your garage seems to missing one of my all time favorites - a 1983 CB1100F Super Sport. Someday I will be riding one again. Mike

nose2wind Posted September 5, 2007 Posted September 5, 2007 Is this something that I can fix myself or should I take it to the dealer? HAHA.. Richard Z. This is such an easy fix. Just put your wife to work on it. Before she gets that fixed you will spot something else and so on and so forth. She won't have time or energy for any friends. Ha! d
slowkitty Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 Horrors!!!! Burn her, burn her!!!! One problem solved ..... now to think about the problem with yr wife. Haha, great intro! Cheers Cat
DeBenGuzzi Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 appears we have a new Tx, hey Tx you ever get that rust fixed or what? some of the forum ole timers'll know what I mean.
TX REDNECK (R.I.P.) Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 ^ everything old is new again I fixed the rust myself I'm working on installing a flathead ford motor in it now With those small ports & retarded timing I'll be sure to set a new speed record at bonneville next year

One could only be so lucky to have a garage full of your bikes! The CBX was another great one but I prefer the lighter feel of the 1100F but both are equally historic. Best of luck closing your deal. Mike
