Default 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
