I have a 2012 RS that I've ridden a lot this season. I rode it about 300 miles yesterday and now today I've noticed some fluid on the floor beneath it. The fluid is between the front tires. There is a small rubber tube that hangs below the plastic block off panels under the engine area. The fluid was leaking from there since its directly underneath it. It's not leaking now. It appears that it leaked last night after the ride and is semi dry now.
The fluid is semi dry now and kind of greasy between the fingers. I wouldn't say its oil but I wouldn't say its anitfreeze either. Because its sort of a dry leak spot on the floor I lean more toward antifreeze (has to be either oil or antifreeze). Either way I've never seen it before and I'm sure its probably not supposed to be doing this. Riding season is about finished here but I'd like to get this taken care of before the warranty runs out in early spring (before the riding season starts up again).
18,000 miles on this bike.
Anyone know what leaks from this tube?
