Does your Kawasaki four inline leak oil or not?

Hi im doing a survey to find out how many people have a kawasaki that leaks or doesnt!.


If you could answer by saying what :


-Model of bike you have


-The year /how old


-If it leaks oil and where.


-Oh and what country your in





This isnt some sort of anti kwak qustion , just a question kinda following up from my previous one. (perhaps me and my mates and all the Kawasaki inline fours 400cc-750cc ive seen are just unlucky to have oil leak probs)Does your Kawasaki four inline leak oil or not?
I think you are just unlucky. I was a Kawasaki mechanic for over 21 years and never saw a problem. The only oil leaker Kawasaki made was the 305. I put 45,000 miles on my 750/4 and you could park it on the living room carpet and not worry about any oil spots!Does your Kawasaki four inline leak oil or not?
GT550


1989


No leaks!


England
1999 ZX-6R


No engine oil leaks ever.


U.S.A.


Had a fork oil seal go bad on this bike though.
1984 GPZ 750 R. You can put a white shirt under my babies sump and there wouldnt be a spot showing even after a run.
03 ZX6R,04 ZX10R,05 ZX6R and 07 ZX6R.None of them leaked oil.Northern Ireland.
Several years ago, my '79 KZ1000 with approximately 100,000 miles once leaked some oil from where the tachometer drive exits the engine. I replaced the seal and that took care of it. My '84 Voyager XIII with 76,000 miles drips some from around the shift lever seal, will replace that this winter. My KZ now has 115,000 miles and is still on the orginal fork seals, never have leaked and yes, there is oil in them!
2007 ZX-6R Ninja. 6300 miles. Valve cover gasket leak on left side of engine (sitting on motorcycle). Common problem for early production 07's !! Had it fixed under warranty two weeks ago and it has started leaking again...
Im on my third Kawi...I had a 94 ZX7, a 96 ZX7RR (one of 350 imported to the USA), and I currently own a 2003 Z1000. None of them ever leaked oil. My Z is currently seeping some radiator fluid out of a hose, but not oil...and I just need some new hosing....
It's not an oil leak, It's sweat from all the horsepower they make!!! I used to have a Z900 many moons ago. (God I wish I still had it!) It used to seep a tiny amount from the side casings but not enough to cause any concern!


Oh and by the way I'm in Sconny Botland!
07 / zx14 / usa - no leaks, just leaves tire marks on the ground.
