Hopefully its just that. I had just changed the gear oil after picking up the bike second-hand, and it really needed the fresh gear oil. At first I was worried it was from switching oil brands, not weight, and that had made the seal swell or contract or something but since its stopped im not making trouble by pondering it.

Thank you for your thoughts on this I will certainly try from the outside when needed. I have not attempted the replacement yet as the weeping from the seal has stopped and not reappeared after 5 hours of riding.

Hello all. I came by a second hand 2006 4RT earlier this summer and have been giving it some needed TLC. The latest issue to pop up is slight weeping from the seal behind the countershaft sprocket. Has anyone replaced this seal and knows if it just slips on over the shaft once the sprocket is off, or if its a major wrenching project? Hoping I can just lay it on its side and complete the task externally. I have the service manual and nothing is mentioned about the CS seal. I found the replacement part and its on order, any insight into the procedure would be very helpful.
