went for a ride today and after about 10 min i noticed an oil leak near the stand. obviosly coming from the counter shaft seal. undid the protector thingy to find the sproket bolt about to fall off. so i tightened it up and no problems since. should i still replace that seal or will it be ok. any other things i can do to stop this from happening again. ( besides checking the nut more than once a year.)

Pull the sprocket off chk the seal & spaces , oring for were , damage
If in drought replace the components
And locktite the splines of the gear and the nut
If the countershaft sprocket is hard to tern after you tighten the nut DON’T RIDE IT
