Anyone having oil or tar on the back of your Spyder?
It looks like new and old grease from an over greased trailer bearing slinging it as you are passing.
Its only on the back truck, saddlebag and helmet area.

Yup, all the time.
It's a badge that says one rides a lot. If you ride in Amish country it's road apples.
I had this same thing going on and it was driving me nuts. It was more prevalent on the first few rides this season and now it has stopped. Yesterday I replaced both headlight bulbs and the headlight adjusters were covered with that same grease that had seeped out from the cable being lubed. There was more on the left side and that's where more of it showed up on the left side mud flap, trunk and saddlebag. If I remember correctly the adjusters on my 2013 were mounted horizontally but the ones on my 2015 are mounted vertically. I'm thinking that over the winter the grease creeped and accumulated then on the first few rides it found it's way to the back. Call me crazy but I think that is where my grease was coming from. Check those adjusters and see if they have grease on them.Quote:
