Thanks for the info. It gives me a place to start. I'll take out the bad seal
and see if there are any part numbers.

Does the gearbox require any lubrication? After sitting for 5 years, I want to
change all the fluids and lubricate everything.

I have read that there is a fan on later models. It it for the motor or
controller? If someone can give me some info or a picture of the fan
installation, I should be able to come up with something that will work.

I don't know if it means anything but the VIN# ends with 0019. Maybe the 19th
production model?

Thanks again for your help.

Mark

I think another owner found some replacement part number --- search this
discussion and you may find it.... if you do, let me know and I'll add it to the
Lectra Support page at www.ElectricMotorbike.org
