With the exception of two bouts of snow, this whole winter in Kansas has been lovely, and I've been riding my '78 R80/7 practically daily. Last Saturday (on Kansas Day) the temperature reached 70 degrees and I went for a nice 50-mile ride around the county with a couple friends. Sunday I rode around a bit because I knew a snowstorm was in the forecast for Monday; I put the bike away in the garage Sunday afternoon, hooked up the float charger and put it on its centerstand.
This morning (Friday) when I opened my garage door, I found a puddle of fluid under the bike. I don't think it's oil...it's amber and doesn't smell like oil. Could it be brake fluid? The underside of the engine case is a little grimy, so I can't tell exactly where it's coming from...I had to go to work, so I couldn't take time to mess with it, but I took these pictures. Ideas?
Thanks!
