Only had a chance to take the bike to work and back so can't say 100 % sure
Leak is gone as work is barely 5 min from hope but I'll try to hit the hiway tonite and that'll give the true results but
I'm sure it's fixed once and for all.

Well I got a reall good ride on the bike yesterday on the hiway and did get a bit of a leak but nothing like before, much of the ride was hard riding, at high speeds for long times. Of course I'm using atf in primary and belray in the gearbox and both are red so not sure which the oil is coming from so today I drained the gearbox and put 80/90 gear oil which is kind of a yellowish color so I'll get out again and hopefully will see red oil rather than the gearbox colored oil.

Persistent little leak isn't it? Bugger should have gone by now :-(

I fianlly got out today, working doubles all week. I;m very happy to say I have a leak and its red fluid and seeing as I took the red belray out of the gearbox I'm prety sure the gearbox is now leak proof.

Well seeing as its red fluid I'm going to put my money on the inner primary seal which for me is no big deal and will replace next rainy day.
