Hello,
I have a small leak left side of my zxr400 l9. Not mechanically minded at all, its a very slow leak down the side stand, dark fluid, where is it from and what could of caused it?
thanks
please see attached pictures.

hard to tell from the pics. if it definitely oil then i would have though an oil seal, so either your front sprocket oil seal, or the gear-shift rod oil seal.

its not road crap thats getting flung onto the engine from the chain and then falling off is it?.

if you remove the LHS footrest and the linkage where it meets the gear-shift rod (10mm bolt) you can then take off that black plastic cover that the gear-shift rod comes through (4 outer bolts, 8mm i think) you will then see your front sprocket and the gear-shift rod in better detail, you might be able to work out where its coming from.

either way im pretty sure its a garage repair, especially if your not mechanically minded. but its a lot better if you can go in and say "it needs # changing, the part costs £xx from Cradleys, how much for labour" as opposed to "i have a leak, fix it please, here is money".

Did u find out what this was as I've the same problem. If so, did u fix it you self?
