I've got an oil leak right around...

...Here



Just under the engine by where the battery breather comes out as well. It's leaking non-stop, and I don't rightly know how to plug it up. Any suggestions?

Isn't that coming from the airbox drain hose? Then your airbox would have fuel/oil in it. How's oil consumption? Stuck needles? Float height?

I have no idea about any of these things as I haven't checked them out yet. I can tell you that fuel consumption is abysmal, though

This is gasoline leaking from the airbox, had this happened before and I think the only possible cause is an overflowing carb that needs cleaning.

This is WAY too thick and dark to be gasoline. And it's oily to the touch

It's oil, I know that much xD

Don't be so sure.... if you look around in your airbox, there is an oily sludge coating in there. So if some gasoline was to get into the airbox, it breaks down that sludge and makes a greasy / oily residue.

Being that I don't own a GS500, I can't tell exactly what hose that is. Would it be the drain hose from the airbox?
