Default Any ideas...

I was looking over the bike today and found a very fine oily mist on my pushrods and rockerbox covers. Just the area behind the air cleaner. I checked up in the A/C cover and found no oil in there. I did notice my oil was overfilled after my last service, but the level is normal now. The oil is not driping or running, just a very fine mist in this area.

Any ideas?

Mist caused by the excess of oil in a very hot surface perhaps? Just a thought...

If it was behind the a/c only, I would guess it came from the breathers. Possibly from overfilling???
