    Transmission output shaft seal leak

    Now that its running, I have a pretty bad oil leak, I'm pretty sure its the output shaft seal. Any tips on changing this?

    Thats an XB though. Does the rear wheel have to be elevated to release belt tension? I don't have a lift or any specialty stuff. Was hoping this could be done with rubber on the ground.

    After cleaning everything and running it a little, it looks like its coming either from the stator wire grommet or crank sensor. Stator cover was changed recently before I got it, but guess it didnt seal up unfortunately.

    I don't have a rear stand, I use two jackstands I got from sears with my 3 ton floor jack. While it's on the side stand I place one jack stand under the spool. Then I lean it over on that stand and slide the other one under. Kinda hokey but it works.
