Thank you for the detailed video , crawled under the bike to find this unfortunate drip at the lowest point of the pump. You zeroed this in for me and ill be looking to see if a new o ring may fix this later on. Love the bike tons kinda heart breaking. Check the oil everytime seems not to be a lot as its barley noticable on loss of oil.

I have to say…….the leak still remains, which is very disappointing. I’m going to leave it for this summer, but during winter maintenance I will change the pump, as I’m not happy having an oil leak on my otherwise perfect bike, no matter how minor the leak. Some people have had success with a new O ring, some not. Unfortunately for me, I’m in the latter group.

@@TheMonty1994 Hey. Im sorry to see that your bike is still leaking oil. I have a 2018 CBR650F and I have the same issue. The guys at Honda are going to try an O ring swap and see if it resolves the issue, if not it'll be a new water pump but after reading the owners manual it seems that Honda may cover it under manufacturer default but you'll need to go via your Honda dealer. Good luck fella!

Hello. Mine had a considerable leak from new, comming from the pump weep hole. A new pump and o-ring was fitted. 1.000Km later the same leak was back. This time is "just" e drip hanging on the pump bottom. Honda has no effective and reliable solution, that's the truth. All dealers will tell your case its unique. It's a desonest lye. I checked other people bikes, ALL had a drop of engine oil hanging on the pump, but none ever foud it becaus it's not easily seen and the drops fly with the wind and don't fall in your garage floor. It's common this oil flying against nearby oil filter and cables passing behind. That's where this leak can easier be identified.

Question for @TheMonty1994, i have looked into the coolant recommend according to the manual, it says it has to be high quality ethylene glycol, which would be Silkolene Mag Cool, instead of the one you used in this video which is based on propylene glycol. Although the one you use is stronger it is prone to be more aggressive and could wear rubber faster.

However it seems to be a common issue or at least I’ve seen enough people complain about it that it’s a real thing and not a one off issue.

I’m not sure where the leak was from, but I would guess it’s from the weep hole. It now leaks less than it did, but can still leave an oily mark on a rag if you have a wipe around near the filter. It’s not a big issue, if you use the bike as a daily commuter you may not even notice, as many don’t, but if you’re OCD like me and wash the bike after every few rides it’s a bit frustrating. Modern bikes just shouldn’t have this issue.
