Default Oil Leaking From Somewhere?

I'll try and let the pictures speak for themselves but ever since I got the bike a couple months ago it has been very oily in this spot. Im not sure where it could be leaking from but that hose would be my first guess. Just a FYI - Its been in storage for two months but it was started and ridden a little every couple weeks (weather permitting). Also the bike has 3600 miles. I wouldnt be too nervous about it but im moving and id rather work on it here.

that is a lot of oil! Wipe it all down and inspect hoses and mateing surfaces. You sure that you did not overfill the crankcase and the oil is coming out of the air box?

Damn I completely forgot about that. You see the guy I bought it from said that he knew how to maintain bikes so I thought I could trust him a little bit. When I brought it home it had over a quart too much [sm=headbang.gif]

I guess ill try and take the airbox out and clean everything up and since the oil level is right now it might not do it again. Thanks Dragone
