Parked the 7/11 in the garage on tuesday last week, all was ok on thursday but when my brother went to get his bike out on saturday the 7/11 has leaked oil all over the floor.He said it appears to have leaked from the gear change shaft, haven't had a chance to go and see for myself. It has not leaked any oil before any thoughts?

My J leaks around that area and I have replaced all the sseals but without much success. However the volume is so small I put up with a few leaks (old brit owner!)

Perhaps you should clean out the whole spocket area and paint with talcum powder. This should show up what seal is leaking
