Before going to that trouble - have you SMELLED the oil?We're still not sure this is the problem. We could pull off the swingarm and everything and find the seal working properly.
The low beam only comes on with the engine running.. that catches a lot of new owners. The leak? Since it's the outside of the boot that looks grungy - I'd be sniffing it..He hasn't seen the bike yet, this is all speculative.
I got the bike disassembled yesterday (well, right panel off) and started on some maintenance.
I can see how they diagnosed the seal, there is clearly some signs of leaking around that rubber boot at the transmission output.
I forgot to smell it but I will do so later, I definitely know what trans lube smells like having done that service yesterday.
On the other hand, dealer checked off that high/low beams were operational and I clearly have no low beams. Unless there is some trick to the switches I don't know about, they missed this item, so they could be off on the seal too. They also told me I needed rear brakes yet the form shows brakes checked off as OK.
I'm quickly learning how to DIY on this model.
