Beginning a rear drive leak (bottom onto the rim) from my 18 yr old rear drive seal. How big of a deal is it to get to & change? Airhead Beemers weren't bad. Thanks in advance for feedback!

If it's the "big seal", it will be easy. You won't even have to remove the bevel box from the bike.
If it's the "little seal" that's inside the box, disassembly will be needed.

It's probably time to change it, but Centauros benefit from a rear drive burp. It's not vented, ya know. Get it hot and loosen the filler cap. See if that stops it. Many times it does.
