The mechanical seal needs to be replaced most often.  When you remove the right side cover, you must replace the crank seal as well - or risk a ruined crank & bearings.  Hmmmm a couple bucks for a seal or a total bottom end rebuild - seems like an easy choice.

I still need to do my waterpump.  When I bought the mechanical seal, I got one of every seal inside of or attached to that cover.  Figure it's best to do them all at the same time rather than risk another one leaking soon after & requiring removal of that cover & a new crank seal again.

If you have an accident on a motorcycle, it's always your fault. Tough call, but it has to be that way. You're in the right, and dead -on a bike. The principle is not to have any accident. If you're involved in an an accident, it's because you did not anticipate. Then, by default, you failed.
