yeah that's what I am wondering, if the needle bearings behind the seal is shot....if so the entire engine has to come out the bike just to change it...ughhhh what a damn job that will be for a $5 bearing.....got to get it fixed though, can't stand having this leak...is there also another seal on the inside of that cover? The only picture I think I've seen is in the parts list at Bike Bandit....looks to me like an outer seal, the needle bearing then an inner seal? thanks for the reply
