Kick Seal Replaced
Still managing sciatic back pain, but on the mend.
In no position to ride bikes as the chance of hitting any bump in the road spark fear into my lower spine.
However I can move around sub normally, which means I can attempt some tasks...
so decided to fix that kick lever shaft case seal.
Got a craft knife and carefully separated the original gasket form the case...
the filter screen could be removed and inspected...some fluff and specs but nothing dire.
all surfaces were cleaned and added a light smear of sealant on both sides of the gasket.
Using an appropriate sized socket tapped the seal home and seated with a rubber mallet.
All installed and nipped up but resting on side overnight before testing if the oil will weep again...
