    I know this is old but it is not leaking from the rotors, it is the seals where the end of the rotor shafts are. The rear uses grease and the front is where the oil comes from. If you are careful and make sure to put the rotors back in the the exact way they come out, it is a cheap and easy fix. You can either buy gasket materials and a razor and the seals from a local parts store or there is a guy on ebay that sells it in kit form.

    By the way, keep tabs on the oil level and don't overfill it. It needs be level with the sight window.
