RECENT MYSTERY MESS

Post by GOT WOODS? »

So I went to wash my bike after a ride and noticed this oily film around the water pump/KIPS area. There is a heavy coating at the front of the crankcase as well and it is all over this side. Has anyone had this happen and know where to start looking? I could not see any signs of where an oil leak has started and the antifreeze level hasn't dropped in the tank. It was dry and dusty on the ride and while it looks like the oil was aerosolized and sprayed a film over the cases, I think it was just oil migrating through the dust that accumulated, kind of like using Speedydri on an oil spill. I scrubbed down the areas so I could see where something might be leaking so I can maybe identify it on the next ride, but wondered if anyone has had this occur with their bike?
