Been getting the 400 ready for next race...........and I noticed some oil in the belly pan and more smeared back to the shock and beyond.

Quick bit of detective work and I realised the gear change shaft seal was leaking.............it's only a small seal and thankfully it can be changed without too much trouble.

Look in the box of many spares and theres a brand new one in fact I had two....................old seal out new seal in bike is good to go.

So my top tip is keep a full set of seals and gaskets you WILL use them eventually and it will make repairs like this one quick painless and easy...........

next job please

Thread revival.

Mine is leaking now - how did you change it?
I've read others have used a self tapping screw to help pull it out?
