Howdy!
I've got a problem with my Honda VT100, an oil leak under the Hyd clutch cylinder. The oil comes out of a machined weep hole! What going on? What has failed? The bike runs, everything operates as it should?
Do you know someone with knowledge in this area?

with no pics or anything if it is a machined weep hole you most likely have a seal failure, the weep hole is an alert, and it also is for a relief so as not to transfer oils between compartments, if they are married, such as eng to trans, to clutch, or like the weep hole on your waterpump on your cage indicating that your seal has failed. now as to why it failed is another question is there a shaft through the seal? and does it rotate or stroke? or both then you will find a bad bearing or bushing causing the seal to leak, if it is just a cover then that is better replace the static type seal and go. but a pic will sure help us help you.
