Sudden Oil Leak

[Klurejr]

UPDATE!

I finally had time to tear everything apart and find the leak.

I pulled the Front Sproket off and notice oil ABOVE where the drive shaft exits the motor, so I cleaned it up and ran the bike for a few min and after some higher rev blips of the throttle Oil started to come out of that cover where the Shifter Spline enters the motor. This was a big relief because now I knew it was probably just a cheap gasket:

Took it off and yep, that was the problem. Here you can see the gasket is falling apart in a bad way:

The part Number in case anyone ever needs it is:

5jj-15463-01-00

Cost more in Shipping than to purchase.

I was literally shouting for joy when I saw the oil coming out.

I finally had time to install the new Gasket yesterday and get myself a new front tire. Put it back together and went for a nice evening cruise with my wife. No leaks, running great!
