Street Bob 08 - Possible Oil Leak?

    Hi All,

    Bike has V&H exhaust, race turner and Screaming Eagle Filter. Had the bike for 1 week. Done about 800km so far. During the last trip I had few short runs up to 150-160/km/hr. (only kidding Mr Law).

    When I got home, I've noticed what looks like slight oil spray at the point where Screaming Eagle filter attaches to the engine. It wasn't much at all and certainly wasn't enough oil to drip down, but I am worried nevertheless. Could some oil spray been pushed though the intake? Is it normal? I am going for another ride this week and will keep my eyes open. Anyone seen or experiences this before? I have posted couple of pics below and indicated (in red) the places where the oil spray was found.
    (see some pics below)

    Hope you can put my mind at ease.

    Cheers

    Vlad
