I finished replacing my starter motor oil seal with the engine in the frame. Here are some observations:
As Jerritt said, you can use standard wrenches to get the two hidden bolts off, but since you can get a whole set of offset wrenches from HF for $15, I suggest getting the set.
I used 5twins method of putting the seal on the starter, and then inserting the starter into the engine. Very smooth and easy.
The biggest problem that I had was removing the old seal. I tried a seal puller from the outside, and I tried big screwdrivers from the outside, but I didn't get anywhere, and I wanted to make sure and not gouge the seal opening. So, I ended up having to take the starter gear and cover off, and I pounded the old seal out with a huge socket. It really took a lot of force to get that old seal out.
The seal housing was a bit gouged by a previous mechanic and required a bit of dressing, and the seal was a bit damaged, hence my original seal leak.
