I have now gotton three rides in on my 98 M900, about 300 miles each. I think I am starting to get used to the ergonomics of the bike, though my knees are usually hurting for about 24hrs after each ride.
On my first ride I found myself without a clutch about halfway through the ride. Bleeding a clutch in a convience store parking lot is not fun, niether is watching the brake fluid cobble up the paint on my engine cases. :-[ The hot dogs and corn chips were a nice distraction though. :-/
On my last ride I was gassing up at that same convience store when I noticed a good size puddle forming under my bike. The fluid, which was either a very dilluted oil or a very oily gas, appeared to be coming out of a black drain tube that runs out of the front of the airbox and along the front of left engine case alongside the battery drain hose.
Can anyone tell me what this leak is? And what might have caused it? Thanks.
