How much oil is leaking, is it dirty oil or clean oil ?Is it coming out of the air box ?

May not be leaking. Just extra that was left on panels after the fix. I would get some engine degreaser to spray on the take to car wash & wash off to get a better idea of if it is leaking/where

oil

when i first installed the highway pegs i did the left side first, i also took off the bottom pan for more air. when i dripped the pan i found oil on it. now i just had the 600 mile service done so i figured it might of been from that, but when i dropped the right pan i also found oil on that, so now that the bike is in for the heat recall i have them checking for a oil leak also

I also had an oil leak and it was coming from the water pump seal. Dealer replaced it and have not had any leaks so far.:yes:

ive washed it to times since the hill country ride... so i dont think it is residue but the shop will answer the question soon
:yikes:

got my bike back

will they claimed that it was residual oil left by the tech (not cleaned). they washed it out and gave it back. i hope that is the end of this story:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

When I had my "heat fix" they replaced the master cylinder and I think it was the cannister. I had some oil leakage. Took it back and they said it was residual from the replacement work. They cleaned her up, gave it back to me (15 minutes) and I haven't had a problem since. (500 miles ago).

When I had my bike torn down to wrap the exhaust pipes I found a oil leak at #10 in this picture. The bolt was loose and all covered with oil. Took about 1/4 turn or more to get it tight. While I had the bike down I checked every fitting I could find and located one more loose fitting at the bottom of the oil tank.
