Hey guys! Sorry I've been conspicuous by my absence. Just working too much on computer at office and hate to get on it when I'm home!

Got a problem that has me a bit perplexed. I noticed an oil smear on the top of the chrome cover that covers the middle drive shaft. Figured it was probably the oil seal on the drive shaft so I changed it and a small O ring on the shaft near the bearings. That doesn't seem to have fixed the problem. Upon closer inspection it seems that the oil may not be gear oil (it has a pretty strong smell!). This appears to be motor oil. I've checked visually all over the engine top and bottom and can't see any oil traces. Oil appears to be coming from up under the battery box where all the electronics are located. I haven't gotten into removing any of that for a look see but thought I'd ask if anyone else had had a smilar problem and what they did to fix it!

30000 miles on the Roadie and still lovin' it!
