Default Mystery leak

hey guys, i noticed when I take my bike out for long rides, i get some type of thick mud like residue splattering all over my kickstand. it definitely smells like grease. anybody know where that might be coming from? i looked at the bottom of my bike and it seems to be splattering everywhere. bike is running fine.

it's just excess lube from the chain. It'll also be on the fairing located behind the kickstand also. It could also be tar from the road since it's getting hot out. Nothing to worry about, just clean it off regularly so it doesn't build up.
