Long story short. I was cleaning up around my bike.. and I saw this.


Its on the front part of the engine, lower side. behind the front tire.

So.. whats up? My engine has been well.. Not working, I haven't turned it on or nothing. I tried to smell it. but It didn't smell like anything to me?

For now, just ride it and keep an eye on it.

Does it feel like engine oil?  If so, could be your oil filter gasket leaking.

I hate when I park in a parking spot, don't pay attention, come out and see a gross looking spot under my bike. 99% of the time it was an already existant spot I parked over, but it still makes you feel paranoid because there's no way to know for sure.

I agree though, probably engine oil. Gasoline would've leaked further back, and if your radiator is leaking, well, there would be a lot more questions to be answered haha. The only other fluid left is brake fluid, so make sure you double check your front brakes before you go for a ride.
