F4 Oil leak somewhere
 
i ride my bike everyday of the week m-th sometimes friday...then my f4 sits in the garage for the weekend...and come monday when i open my garage theres oil on the floor...its not a MAJOR leak just a thin layer...you cant see it until after you move the bike and i have full oil still...so im not sure if its an oil leak or some other liquid....but it only happens when my bike sits for the weekend...any ideas?...

RE: F4 Oil leak somewhere
 
Funny I have a slow leak in my car leaks 1 drop of oil per week. I stopped driving it for 1 week at a time and now I just noticed it (not sure how long the leak has been there because that car used to be driven at least every few days until I got the bike).

I think you just have to get under there and see where things are dripping from (with a flashlight). Luckily yours is a slow leak so no emergency yet. But it's best to at least understand why it's leaking and take action if needed. Usually, there's a trail of oil to follow on whatever parts it leaked on to get to the floor. You may want to clean under there very well so you can see where it happens next time.

Good luck,

Dennis
