I went out for a brief ride yesterday. When I got back I covered the bike and went inside. Later that evening I went out to leave (in the dark) and noticed a wet spot near the front tire. Suspecting the worst I dabbed it with my finger and smelled it. It did not smell or feel like oil. this morning I went out and it is stained into the blacktop but dry and it looks like splashes of fluid onto my tire. I ran my finger around the fork leg, near the fork scrapper on the leg, and underneath it all without feeling any fluid. What say you guys. HAPPY HOLIDAYS> | ||

You own a dog?  | ||

Brake fluid? | ||

Worse yet, any neighborhood cats?  | ||

what time of the month is it? | ||

How cold is it where you are? Could be condensation from the heat of the bike collecting inside of the cover and running down the cover. But that would not explain why it "stained" the ground. Just a thought. | ||

What Tailspin said. Some canine has claimed your Buell. | ||

 You dabbed your finger in dog piss. | ||

Absolutely not DOG PISS. Still a big dark stain under the front of the bike on the inside where the steering wheel is pointing. | ||

Try wiping a paper towel around the dust seal and see if you get any fork fluid. Could be a leaking center bolt washer. See diagram in this post from the knowledge vault. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/384 2/249047.html?1188735029 |
