Yep, my Fatboy also leaked from the drain hose. There was a crack right at the elbow. Like someone said, remove the plastic tire guard to make the awkward job a lot easier. And use worm clamps instead of the cheap pinch clamps.

Rocker B, My Oil Drain Hose is cracked and seeping oil. Do you know if there is a braided Oil Drain Hose for the Rockers (& Part #)? I've been searching and can't fine it. Thanks.
