Valve Cover Removal/‘93 CB750

[stevewaclo]

Hello all!

I’ve noticed minor oil leaks at several places around my valve cover gasket, even though the bolts are all snug and I don’t want to over tighten them. Gaskets are reasonably priced but my concern is regarding removal of the cover. Clearance above looks pretty tight, with a thick wire harness and some other items which appear to be fairly easy to move.

Before I dig into this project, I’d like to be assured there is enough space above the valve cover for removal with the engine in place.

Thanks in advance!

You should have no issues, a ratchet wrench will come in handy, you probably noticing the oil on the sides of the valve cover that's pretty common leak area, when you put it back together just a little dab of black RTV spread thinly and evenly... don't go crazy I pulled enough of that stuff out of motors.
