I have recently bought a cheap RXS 100 to use to get to work and back, but upon standing in the garage for a week the 2 stroke tank appears to have emptied its contents. There is no leak on the 2 stroke tank, any of the piping or from the oil pump.

The gearbox was full and overflowing through the dipstick and from the colour of the oil it looks like it has 2 stroke oil mixed with gearbox oil in it.

Is this possible and if so does anyone have any ideas on a fix.

The bike starts and runs fine (although as the bike has no MOT i have not been able to road test it).

Cheers for any help.

think deeper...

you have to replace the oil pump seal.. the oil gets in the gearbox through that..
