Oil Leak opinions?

ryanfavro · Jun 4, 2014

Hey guys anyone seen this leak pattern on their bike yet? I haven't had the chance to pull the right side fairing off to investigate. The oil appears to be weeping through the lower right side fairing seem. I've wiped it clean only to have it reappear after riding again. The dealer just completed the first service for me about a week ago. I considered the possibility they overfilled during the oil change but the sight glass shows the oil level on the lower marker.

+1.

on another subject you might want to invest in some radiator guards.

I don't think it's an oil leak after all. There was no oil on the backside of the fairing. In fact it was spotless behind there. But what I did notice was that the over flow hose from the gas tank that normally is routed to the eveap canister was nestled right where the origin of the leak was thought to be. Im thinking it's just it's gasoline overflow and that the hose could be a bit longer.
