Transmisison oil leak

[reventured]

Have been experiencing a small oil leak, about 5 drops, after riding each day and it appears to be dripping from underneath the engine. Took it to Yamaha shop and they replaced the push rod for the transmission and gaskets and o-rings to go with it. The old rod, they said, was an aftermarket rod (must have been worked on by previous owner) and it came out with wear groves on each end, about 3/4 inch from each end of the 9 inch rod. Well, it is still leaking.

The bike is a 2000 RSV with about 68k miles. Any ideas on what to look for next would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeff

make sure it's not from the breather drains, a slightly overfilled motor will vent to airbox and drain down there.

:sign yeah that::sign yeah that: If it is more than 1/2 way up the sight glass it can suck it into air box. Easy way just pull top off of air box and see if you have oil in it.
