#3My SD was delivered with the oil tank way overfilled. On the trip from the dealer it leaked oil everywhere. I think it was venting oil into the airbox or something, and it was then running down the engine and onto the ground. I removed the excess oil and the problem mostly went away. I continued to find small drops under the scoop for about the first 500 miles, but it now seems to be done dribbling.

#4I hope a simple over fill of oil is the problem, I will be sure to tell them some of the responses I'm getting. It really is alot if it really is simply too much oil.
Thanks.
Thanks.

#13Changed my oil yesterday and the bike immediately started leaking again. Guess where I tracked the leak to - the oil pressure switch was finger tight.
bfriend, the switch is on the back left of the front head. From the left side of the bike look into the ¨V¨ of the motor right behind the top of the engine hanger.
