Yesterday as first time on the second year I have the bike, I noticed that there was some oily cover on the area of the rear fender close to the plate holder.

Is the rubber hose that is on the area comming from the engine or some other part?

I never noticed that before, but is this a meaning the the engine is sending oil out? or this is normal for the bikes?

Thanks for any opinions,

I had that problem till I rebuilt my forks. Fork oil or rear shock oil is getting into the the airline when you let air out of the suspention. The oil then gets out the vent and down the rear fender.

Ok,

That has a lot of sense. I had problems with the CLASS (Needs to be resawder), and all that I can do right now is change the regulator from 2 to 4 when have a passanger, and last year I put progressive springs on the front, and I get about 5 to 7 pounds on the front.

May be is too much pressure on the front goint out in the back?

Also, the pressure on the rear shock continously change.

I have to recheck the rear circuit obviously.

Thanks a lot.:cool10::cool10::cool10:
