So i woke up a week ago and saw that my bike had been kicked over on its left side (so it must have had substantial force). Its a 2001 CBR 600 F4i. Someone must have picked it up because it was upright when i saw it, but there is a lot oil(looks like all of it) that leaked out onto the pavement. i took the left side and front plastics off and was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what happen and/or how to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

 

Um, look for cracks... Something broke if oil leaked out of it, so find where it broke. Try putting more oil in it and looking for the leak.

 

show pics to get a better look of the problem?

 

i tried uploading pictures but all the pictures i have are 350 Kb and higher and the limit is 250. sorry

 

Reduce the size of the pictures then.

 

was their anything on the floor that could have punctured it? check the oil filter to see if it's ok or if got damaged in anyway?

 

You could be running into a lot of problems. Oil will usually leak anyway if the bike just sits on its side for a long period of time. Does everything on the bike look normal and in place? No cracks or dents? Have you tried putting some oil in and trying to find a leak? That's your best bet unless you can send some pictures.

 

unfortunately i am not very savy on a computer so i do not know how to shrink the size of the file or the pictures...as for the idea of adding more oil to the bike i have not been able to do that yet because it has been in the single digits in temperature lately. however regarding the cracks or dents... i did not see any when i removed the front and left side plastics

 

Load you pictures to photobucket. then select re size.
