Small Final Drive Drip

[Toadman]

OK. Life has gotten in the way of riding and after stting for months there's a small drip under my final drive. I let an experienced rider take it for a test ride last night and haven't seen a drip or anything in 24 hours. Do I have something to be concerned about?

You might have a very, very, small leak in one of the drive shaft seals. If the leak rate is one drop every few months, I'd ignore it. MIne leaked a little puddle every few days - I drove it like that for a month or two before I replaced the seal. The fluid was barely off of "full."

Thanks, that's what I thought too.
