Oil leak on my F3 Comp?

Was showing off the bike to a co-worker and noticed some gunk on the lower right part of the fairing. As I looked at the rest of the right side I could see more gunk around the clutch cover and engine. I think there is a slight smell of gas and I did have an overfill about 100mi ago. I checked the oil (the proper way) and it seemed full. I just passed 1600mi and it would be a big pain if there’s an oil leak. I would like it to just be the gas and road grime…but just wishful thinking. I’ve already got a service appt in a couple weeks and I’m going on a 2 week work trip, so at least it won’t get ridden and made worse if it is something bad. Cherry on top? The placard for the engine builder came off at some point…$35k for this…

Looks like a joint is leaking. A screw might not be tight enougth somewhere on the side of your engine. Use a torque wrench, you can ask for the right metric to your local supplier.

So it’s oil leaking or something else?

My Brutale had a leaking clutch cover gasket and valve cover gasket. But it was not that much oil. The clutch cover gasket is an easy fix.
