[QUOTE="kmx125r, post: 128742, member: 18576"] Hey All, I recently changed the tranny oil on my "new" (to me anyway) KDX250SR. I put in a full quart, as advised... I rode around on the bike a bit and noticed a relatively significant oil leak dripping on the shop floor. It stopped after a bit, so I didn't worry too much about it. The next time I rode the bike, it began leaking again! This time I investigated more deeply... What I found surprised me... the drain plug was tight, no problem there. But about an inch or so rearward of the drain plug, I noticed a "hole" right along the joint of the case halves! I was shocked! How did that happen? Upon further, closer investigation, it appears to me that the "hole" is supposed to be there!?! It is a "D" shaped hole and it is only on one case half! It does not appear to have been created by accident! Can anyone confirm a similar hole on their KDX250? This is where the oil is coming from. But it seems to have stopped leaking as the level of the tranny oil came down and is now at the correct level as I view it in the sight glass (right at the top of the glass!). Is this some sort of "overflow" hole? Is it peculiar to the SR models? Can I just plug it up? KDX250 owners... help me out here... thanks. Also... how do you get Smilies into your posts? I've tried numerous times, but always a no go! [/QUOTE]
