Thanks
That photo should not be used as a reference guide for much of anything as only one of the plugs (tranny 5/8) is correctly labelled on there. Everything else seems to be labelled as some sort of comedy thing. The one labelled (mag plug) is actually the engine oil drain plug. No friggin idea what the hell "mag plug" is supposed to mean. That and the transmission drain plug, of all the ones pictured there, are the only ones which should be removed for fluid changes.

check the stator plug (behind your front shift lever sort of) on the left side of your bike.
one/two drops sounds like that to me.
