New Moto Guzzi Door Mats Available Now
Most likely from the crankcase vent system, being on it's side more ran out the vent hose under the bike, from airbox drain also. Upset the apple cart stuff goes sideways.
Sorry Patrick, in my hurry to post I forgot. This is on my Cal Spec.It's a large puddle, about 15" in diameter. It won't be until tomorrow that I can roll it back for more proper inspection. The leak is back of the bike, behind the passenger foot pegs.
“Hi, I’m Mark and I once dropped my bike in the garage changing the oil. The windshield missed my wife’s car by less than an inch.”
When I checked the dip stick I now have a half inch too much oil according to it so I have to think something else mixed into it. I know I've read on here about people getting gasoline in their oil but I've never understood the how. Is there anything else that could make it be too full?
AJ, you said earlier your engine oil was recently changed. Who changed the engine oil recently? They likely over filled the crankcase. It’s certainly isn’t unusual to read that being done on this forum. IMHO, everything so far points to engine oil dribbling out the crankcase vent system. It would be unlikely for it to be transmission or rear end oil.
that oil puddle looks thick. i would suspect tranny juice. not sure how or where, but it sure looks too thick for engine oil.
So my thought now is, drain the oil and replace. Drain the gear box just to be extra cautious. I'll just weigh out 750 grams of 80/90 to put in. And be done with this. Wish I understand the cause and effect but some things are just mysteries.Thanks for everyone's help.-AJ
I'll have to open up the gear box and sample some I guess because I don't know what gear oil smells like. -AJ
