A few weeks back I was riding in Yosemite at the Horizons Unlimited rally and when I got back to camp it looked like oil grunge running down the RH side of the head , cylinder and maybe even out the water pump weep hole. I thought "great the valve covers came loose". After looking at it more closely I saw that the grunge was on the front forks also. I took it to a car wash and soaped it down and rinsed all the crud away and rode it to see where it was leaking from. Turns out I had ridden in a down pour up in Yosemite and the front tire flung road grunge up between the radiators and it landed on top of motor then ran over the side and made it look like a horrendous leak. I think a front fender rear flap would stop this. I'm mentioning this because I had a fright thinking my motor was falling apart and all it was was rain water from the road. YMMV rj
