If your trans is over full or the breather tube is plugged, oil can actually travel up the inside of the clutch cable then seep out. If it hasn't been touched the Oring at the end of the cable is probably fine. Be careful if you try to snug it up, doesn't take much to snap. Ask me how I know.

Perfect timing of this post. have some down time and needing to do a few things on the bike while the weather is bad. This was one of them.

I loosened the exhaust bracket carriage bolt to put copper grease between the two plates/sides. This seems to avoid corrosion due to friction.
