Default Leaking oil Help

Ever since I had the head worked on I am leaking oil. It does not seem to be coming from the head though. Doesn't leak at idle but run though the gears and about a tablespoon of oil puddles up right around the waterpump hoses and oil fills a few allen screw that hold the clutch cover on. I have replaced the clutch cover gasket twice made sure all hose clamps are tight and the damm thing still leaks. I guess about 1/4 cup for a few hours of riding. Oil is also puddling up behind the jug close to were the oil comes into the motor but that is not leaking. where else to check?

Did you replace the Base Gasket when the Head work was done? Just a thought. If it seems to be leaking around a side cover screw you might use some gasket or O-Ring grease to help seal it, this requires removal and reinstallation of the suspected side case. Might check the crank case vent and tubing, at higher RPM's it could blow a little out that might drip back down from where the tube enters the air intake.

Good luck
