I get home from a just under 100 mile ride, and this is something I noticed when I was about to go inside:



This is a 2011 Fatboy Lo, and two months ago (8/12) they did some work on it because the shifter wasn't returning on it's own. I've ridden just under 500 miles since. I know that I haven't seen this before, and I check it after every single ride regardless of how far/short/long the ride was.

Here is the list of things they "did":

 

First thing to do is clean it up and find out where the leak is coming from. My guess would be one of the lines from the oil tank above. There is no fluid in that portion of the transmission. This will start a war but I see they used Syn 3 oil 1 qrt, did they put that in the transmission? If so get it out of there that is motor oil not transmission fluid and I don't care what anyone else tells you. It may just be a loose clamp on an oil line.

 

Regardless It shouldnt be leaking. Id take it back. Hopefully they warrenty there work even if it is a loose clamp.

 

Thanks for the replies. I'll check it in a few mins, and will talk to them in a few hours. I'll update when I get back. I appreciate the help.
