Any one else have this leaking problem?
I just got my Rocker a few weeks ago and its already leaking on me! Take a look at the green arrow in the picture. The dealer told me that its normal for Harleys and that HD actually engineered it that way. When the lube liquefies, it leaks out of the bottom. And when you happen to be riding the moto while its leaking, it gets all over your gas tank and pant legs. What gives? Any one else having this issue?

I noticed the same drip from the same place on my deluxe. It was just serviced though, so it is to be expected.
You really didn't think H-D could make a bike that didn't leak, did you? \\;

Its not a problem...we all have it on hot days with the stock factory grease. Just get use to wiping off your tank after every ride.

I changed to a marine based grease and refilled it by pushing all the old stuff out. Seems to be \\;OK since...
