08' 800 Sportsman oil leak
#1
All -
I went for a ride yesterday nothing to report
went wrong. We all have a great time!
However, when we got back I noticed a dash
of black oil squirted on the top of my left
rear tire. Maybe the shocks???????
Any ideas?

Might want to take a sample and smell it. Sometimes that is a good starting place...especially if you do not see where it came from.
Hope this helps some...

if the strut was leaking, there would be an oil film on the side of it. keep looking around and an eye on the engine as well to spot where its coming from.

Hey Stendori,
Yea I think I am around the 50 mile mark now just
taking a guess since I haven't ridden her much since
I got it. I will post on Thursday night if I see anything.
I will also test the rear shocks with some bounces and
such. This weekend I didn't even ride her hard, hmmm
I don't know?
Regards,
