Pretty deep into replacing the clutch on my 2010 R1200RT with 95K miles. Need to remove swingarm, rear frame and trans to get to the clutch assembly. Now that I am into it this far I am questioning why I didn't go ahead and order a rear main seal and compensating shaft seal since I will be in this far and has 95K miles. Some suggest just go ahead and replace it and others say if no signs of leaking or damage, just leave it alone. At this point it may have an answer if I get in there and see leaking, but if not, trying to decide if I try and complete this weekend as planned or wait for parts and finish next week or weekend. Anyone have any experience or personal recommendations? I'd prefer not to take all this apart again, but in my background of auto repairs we don't always proactively replace parts if not needed or no signs of failure, except for some parts or at customer's option.
