If the case comes off the bike, I will definately split them and renew every seal and bearing I can get.
The only reason to wait would be to just get the bike running and resolve some unknowns. First I would like to just get it running and make sure there isn't some latent tragic flaw I am missing that makes a non starter (like a trashed transmission). I bought it locked up, and it looks in good shape, but who knows? Next I would like to ride the thing and see if its cool, or if I would just hate it for riding on the street as a fun little playbike dual sport commuter (second bike). Next I have to work my way through the title office and get the thing titled and plated for the street.
I think all that will work out, but there are a few places things could go terribly wrong and I may yet end up just parting out the bike...
