Well, I think I may have a legit oil leak, although a minor one. Just got back in from a short 30 mile ride. Noticed oil on the bottom of the engine right under the sprocket cover. Started thinking that the leak may be just oil from the chain, however, I noticed it is golden brown and not clear with some dirt in it. The golden brown color looks exactly like the Mobil 1 4T oil that I put in the bike. Once the engine cools (I learned my lesson already), I'm going to take a look at the sprocket. Gut instinct tells me the seal in there is going to be the culprit. Anyone have any experience with these? I'm thinking I may be taking her in a month early for inspection this year...


Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight.
