I have never seen one do that before. even my 11 year old six has the same o-ring in it. There is a little O-ring which seals the Clutch actuater shaft.

Check the breather pipes for the engine and gearbox if the leak is above the normal level of oil it means there is a build up of pressure

just a symptom of hard riding and the resulting excessive fuming surely??

just incase it happens to anyone else, the seal was in fact shagged, popped it out, didnt even need to take off the engine case off, put the new one in and no more leaky's

all for a grand total of 6 dollars, makes me think what a mech would have charged for this 10 mins work!?
