I bought a used Trail Boss, and my son & I had a chance to go for a good ride today, for the first time since buying it.
Noticed a little puddle of oil on driveway after letting it sit, after riding it.

After further investigation, I found that it is coming from the upper left side of motor (behind black plastic belt cover), dripping off the very bottom of the plastic belt cover, seems to be coming from between the plastic belt cover & left side of engine. It makes it way to lowest part of engine, and drips on floor from there???
Any ides, before I take to dealer to have checked?

Thnaks in advance,
Jeff

Most likely a worn or improperly installed shaft seal.
