Slow oil leak from inner clutch cover

Slow oil leak from inner clutch cover

Hi folks,


Bike is 2001 KX250. I have a very slow oil leak from my inner clutch cover. There is a paper gasket as standard and I’ve tried a thin bead of liquid gasket on both sides of the gasket, and I’ve tried shovelling liquid gasket onto both sides and it still drips about one drop every 5 minutes.


Would two paper gaskets help? I’ve ordered some ThreeBond liquid gasket to try (have been using Dirko so far). I haven’t had the clutch cover on a flat surface to check for warpage but is there any recommended method of fixing this?


Cheers
