I've an appointment at SMHD for Monday next week. Seems I'm leaking oil in the area of my drive sprocket and it's getting on my belt and rear wheel. A little bit, not too bad. Does anyone know if there's supposed to be a little cover over the final driveshaft and that might be what's allowing the juice out? Mine doesn't have a cover and it looks as though that's where it's coming from. Hopefully it's just a little fix. |

Agreed, no cover, definitely a seal. |

Happened to me too... Have you ever dropped it into first w/o using the clutch? They had mine fixed in about 45 minutes and didn't even have to drain the fluid. |

M1- That's some seriously good news, thanks. I don't think I've ever dropped it into 1st without the clutch...I have had the sprocket replaced under warranty though. I was thinking it had something to do with that. |

Which sprocket, the front one? Did it leak before you had that done? Didn't the offer to replace the missing cover? |

Yes, the front drive sprocket. It didn't start leaking until last week, which was 6 months after they replaced the sprocket. And about 3000 miles. The whole gist of my question was, "Is there a cover?" It looks like there's a cover in the manual. I don't know if I ever had one. I'll know Monday. I'm still riding. It's not a catastrophic leak. It's just making my back wheel and swingarm a little gross. |

I got the ooze stopped. Thanks for the help here guys, you were right, it was just a seal. Fixed under warranty and they washed all the spew off my rear wheel & swingarm! |
