M8 marks it's spot. Oil cooler leak.
I found my 2017 RK dripping oil when I parked it in the garage. It's got almost 23K on it.. There was a recall on early 2017s for one of the clamps not getting crimped enough. Well they may look good for a while but might need a little more crimp.
It's not too hard to pull the front shroud. It's held on place by 2 plastic barbs cast to the shroud. SM says to pull it off so it comes off with too grommets. I suspect that all you need for the install is to pull the gromets off the pins, shove them back into the holes, rehook the shroud at the top and push it back on the grommets to install.
Anyway here is the clamp that is loose. Crimp end is on the other side. I simply used the crimper and it got tight. Will find out if it leaks tomorrow.

If it still leaks I'll be lazier than that. I can add a clamp to the end of the hose without disturbing the current clamp. The hose was loose, crimping it more and it don't move which is a good sign.

I brought mine in on the recall. Guy said it was good. This was about a year and a half, and 16000 miles ago.
