    Yes and from swinging engine down to this is not much more work:

    Was in a hurry doing the oil leak on the rear to see if my fix held up and during the winter look over the front (with engine out) and look everything over better.

    Have a little info here on getting engine out of the frame after most of the other parts are removed:

    Me? Never actually leaked from the front cylinder but when lifting cylinder wear could be seen so it was not far away from developing a leak on the front also.

    Think I have about 20 000 km on the bike since gaskets were changed and some sealant added and runs like a champ (well as before) have some hiccups here and there and misses a gear every now and then but will run this with minimal maintenance until it explodes.
