Looking over the bike just now, I noticed a small amount of dried oil mist on the swingarm, just around the spindle on the left side of the bike. I'm just a little worried that the oil tank could have a tiny crack or some porosity around the spindle area. Has anyone seen this before? I don't appear to have lost any oil. I'm out riding tomorrow so will keep an eye on it. |

check the fittings under the bike and where it goes from the oil tank into the engine. The "oil tank" does __NOT__ go all the way to the spindle...that side of the swingarm is used for the oil tank only about half way. |

Check the fittings around the area of the oil pump. I just had to fix mine. The 45 degree fitting was a whole turn short. That leaking oil was getting all over the swing arm and rear rim. I removed the fittings going to the oil pump and added some teflon tape. |
