Okay, Flick has been running fantastic got about 2,000 since rebuild (yeah I ride that much) but lately I've been getting this on my boot. I noticed it today at Arby's and wiped it off with a napkin and water. When I got home 12 miles later my boot was like this:


But I don't see anything on the engine

Look at the inside of the fairing.
leak coming from the oil cooler lines?

Take a trip to brandon and I'll look over it for ya!

I'm off all weekend.

Well,
Addidas fairing looks good.
Flick hasn't used any oil. And I wish I could make it to Brandon but I'm supposed to help a lady in my Sunday school class move tomorrow and have Church stuff most of Sunday!

Your shift lever is not in the photo. Is it clean? Oil coming down the shift lever to your boot?
Splatter from the chain?
Fork leak?

Is it oil or gas on your boot? Or water or ..... ?

I'm going to be working in Auburndale soon, so one day we should meet halfway and take pics of the bikes!

Sweet Auburndale Sr. High is my Alma Mater!
Adidas it appears to be oil but might be lube it doesn't really wipe off without work it kinda smears.

Mary

Chain lube coming from somewhere?
Look below Flick. Could chain grease be dripping down when your feet are on the ground? Is Flick marking his territory or peeing on the ground?

When I get too much chain lube accumulated inside the front sprocket housing it runs out the shifter shaft down the shift lever and onto the nose of my boot.  I never notice it leaking until I see it on my boot.  Take off the front sprocket housing and clean it out.

I'll look into that tomorrow might give him a bath and give a good once over.

Think I found the culprit somehow this didn't get tightened!!
