Big job - spline lubrication, centerstand job

Hello!

I am doing clutch and drive spline lube. During disassembly of the bike's rear and clutch release lever I have found a small leak from rubber sealing gaiter. Is it normal to find gear oil in rubber gaiter, or thrust bearing and its seal should be 100% closed. Next thing If I pull out the control rod and thrust bearing, can I suspect oil leak, or the normal level in gear box is below thrust bearing? Because it is K1100 the thrust bearing and seal is one part:

Best regards,

Will the K1100 box fit the K100? I may have heard this. K100 the oil does reach the thrust bearing and you will lose a little when you remove the boot.

If I remember correctly, you can remove the control rod without further leakage.

Note the centre stand bushing has groves for o-rings . Take a look at pictures of inner Paralever bearing races. I don't plan to replace them. The problem for me is that, I can't remove needles with buckets form rear and front swing arms bearings, so I am not able to clean them and put fresh Molly 60 on it :/. Any advice?

@JoelB , AFAIK the gear box from K100/K1100 are exchangeable (maybe K75 too). Putting newer transmission allows for Paralever conversion.

Best regards,

Hello!
There were o-rings, I've threw out what left of them.
Back to question regarding clutch rod seal and rubber gaiter:
a) if seal should be 100% seal, than I have to replace it, and leave the gaiter,
b) if there should be a bit of oil in the gaiter, then I'll leave the seal and replace the gaiter, because it leaks out.
hoechst give me a hint, you made a video about that job ;).
Motor works has "pushrod seal" in catalogue, but where it does go?

I've removed the clutch disengage arm - needle bearings are in terrible condition :/.
