Hey guys,

So i took my R100/7 out for quite a long and thoroughly enjoyable ride on Sunday after having just sorted my front brake master cylinder.

The bike really goes well and i'm finding my 800 gs is getting neglected big time since i bought it!

After the ride i noticed something a little worrying, i had a little bit of oil on my right boot. Upon further inspection i found traces of the oil, see attached pictures.

Can anybody tell me the source of the leak and how to stop it? Seems to me its coming from the nut just next to the spark plug?

???
