[QUOTE="geremacheks, post: 482667, member: 28410"] Great work, Lou, Except it didn't work for me. Leaked bad after that fix. So I tried another idea which many have told me about: Enduro Engineering suggests and sells two o-rings for this fix. One the normal size, and one small one. The small one goes over the counter shaft first, then the normal sized one follows. I tried this, then took the bike for a ride, and it still leaked. I didn't have any ideas after that, except for putting Harley stickers over my KTM. However, after letting the bike sit in the garage that night, I noticed it barely leaked overnight. So more test rides, and hardly any leaks. Now, if it drips at all, it's very minimal. Two orings fixed it. I'll also add that if you don't need to change the oil, just lay the bike on its side without much gas in the tank. You can do the whole operation without any tranny oil leaking out. I've heard different reasons for the cause of this leak. One mentioned often is a chain that is too tight. I'm not so sure this is the cause. It wasn't with my exc 200. The chain was excessively loose. I think this is just a KTM problem, and I notice on specs for their new bikes, they have tried to remedy this problem with new countershaft seals? and orings?..... Oh, yeah. A $7.00 seal remover can be bought from Sears or most automotive stores that will pull the seal out easily too. It's big, but it gets in there and works like a claw hammer. I wish I could say it was just a few hours of work then success. I was about ready to give up. I hope this keeps working. [/QUOTE]
