Timing Pulley, Oil Leak Anyone?

[paso750]

By the way, how's the riding weather in Germany? It's a nice 24 deg C in Sacramento right now, but it will be HOT soon!

I`d say it`s perfect. Temperatures as in Sacramento but rain`s coming and temp will drop again.
These pictures were made last week (30min drive from where I stay. Up on the mountains there`s still some snow)

I just wanted to let you all know that I got the oil leak fixed. After trying multiple approaches, it turned out that depressing the rear brake allowed me to remove the nut without needing the special pulley wrench; although I did have to grind down a socket to remove the nut.

When I removed the drive pulley, the seal just fell out!! With a fresh seal, fit snugly into its spot - the leak is gone. After riding it around a bit, I am sure I finally plugged up all of the oil leaks on the bike...now I just have to watch out for cops, since the smoke screen no longer masks my trail.

I've since moved onto a new project...breaking chains I think I'll start a post about that one!!

Thanks for the support!
