Ugh, that sucks.
2018 GA - oil leak / drip
For those of you following at home, in the last post there was heavy smoke in the exhaust:

I rode the newly repair bike ~100 miles mildly the day I picked it up. Parked it. That was on a Thursday.
Come out Saturday to ride it, and see this:

ok I think to myself, maybe there was some oil splashed or otherwise not cleaned from the repair. I degrease and clean the area and go on a ride Saturday.
~250 miles; nothing too wild
Bike didnt seem to perform poorly, and I didnt see any smoke or thick exhaust. Park the bike.
Today (Monday)
New Spot

Welp time for another appointment. Any bets if I make a July 10 departure?
