Thanks, Friar, Snoop, guys. Got the cover off yesterday (I know, should be simple, but weekends have been busy lately! LOL).
Ugly, milky stuff! Yuck! The clutch basket is definitely NOT billet. Nothing else looks untoward. The oil seal looks ok, but the bearings on the impeller seem rough--and there was some "stuff" on the seal, so it probably is the culprit. I'm ordering the seal, bearings, and gaskets from Bike Bandit. Aside from this, and the JB weld job, anything else I shiold do before I button her up?
Thanks again!
Yuck!!!
