XBR500 oil pipe banjo bolts
« on: February 01, 2014, 12:39:02 PM »
Having rebuilt the engine I have just discovered a slight oil leak from the oil pipe banjo bolt attached to the cylinder head.
I removed the engine case banjo bolt as well and discovered that the bolts are not identical - same length/thread but the oil hole in one is bigger than the other. Does anyone know which end of the pipe which banjo bolt goes? Does it matter?
 Thanks
Chris

What's the theory behind it?
