The last time I changed my tranny oil, I noticed that my tranny oil was a light red, almost pink. I run Klotz Flexdrive 30 tranny oil-which is a dark red, almost maroon. This was the first time that I have noticed it and I change my oil after three rides. I was thinking that the only way that antifreeze would get in there is from the water pump seals. Any other thoughts. I am tearing into the water pump tomorrow night.

if the oil is milky, it's coolant in the oil.
I'd replace the mechanical seal.
