Just went in to my garage and noticed a spot of oil, or so it looks, under the bike. The drip appears to have come from the left side of the engine. I havent had the time to take any tupperware off, but it is not comming from the oil drain plug or filter cap. It looks like it is dripping from the left side of the engine not the bottom. Does anyone have any ideas what it is or where it may be comming from. I'm having a panic attack thinking about it.
Hi,
I see you have a 2002LT so since on my 2003LT the oil leak was coming from the vent hose assembly on the top of the engine.
Unless you have recently removed the valve cover, I doubt that it's leaking.
I noticed my leak while riding on day long trips at 80+ mph and noticed oil on my left foot and shifter.
$72 bucks for the assembly/distribution hose(11151465009) and a day of my time in my garage. It's very doable, but you must have a lot of patience and some forethought as to how to get the new hose assembly on. Not much room to see/do at the same time when attaching the hose to the vent tube and tightening the clamp.
Removing theleft fan shroud, airbox, throttle body, injectors and all the wiring just was time consuming since it was my first time getting into the bike that far.
Hope you've already stopped your leak and are out riding!
