Long story short. I was cleaning up around my bike.. and I saw this.
(http://i42.tinypic.com/oleg5.jpg)
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?
Your engine peed itself.

clean it up, idle it for a minute, then look again. no oil = what you have on the floor is chain lube O0
It might eventually do this: http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=58301.0
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.

Waiting for Jessies package before any riding :)
