i have a 2003 blaster that i just took apart to rebuild,got bike threw trade and it was barely running low compression and oil coming out of crankcase vent so i figured getted it bored out and fresh top end and crank seals,when i drained the gear box there was about 1/2 gallon of oil in it which seems to me to be way to much,how much oil should be in gear box? and should i still replace crank seals? thanks
 
yes .74 of a quart (3/4) basically! but if you have it all apart you should just change the seals while your in there! because they were probally leaking pretty bad with it trying to get rid of the extra 1 1/4 quarts!
