Inner primary oil leak-01 ROADKING

[bbrowning]

I know another oil leak!! My drive belt broke and I did the replacement myself. I had a oil leak immediately after this work was complete. I waited for a while befor taking inner and outer primary off. After tearing it down I noticed that I put the mainshaft bearing in backwards. Bummer! I put new seals and gaskets and used red RTV. After 200 miles the leak was back not as bad but a leak. What did I do wrong?? Any help is apprciated.

Sorry for a late reply to this one i was away on summer holiday
i have ahd trouble with inner primary leaking past the bolts that secure the ineer primary to the gearbox so i seal with some hylomar around the head of the bolts and under the washers works good for me

Thanks for the reply. I have some flourescent additive in the transmission to see if it is the source of the leak. I hope not. I will be doing the repair after trip to Mn.
