The final drive on my Tenere has developed a small oil leak. The oil is dripping out the drain hole in the swing arm in front of the gear case. Have not torn it down because of the lack of parts, I am assuming that it is the one of the two seals or O ring on the front side is the culprit. The bummer is that both seals are not available from Yamaha USA. One is available as a direct ship from Japan and the other is not available even in Japan til December 15th. :'( It appears that both of the seals are unique to the Tenere and not used on any other models. The weather has turned cold here so not a big deal, luckily it did not happen in the middle of the riding season.
Unit is out of Warranty and I did not purchase the extended warranty so I will be doing the repair myself.
