Hello friends. My 2012 NC700SA has started making a strange scraping kind of sound. I only hear it when decelarating or braking. (Fortunately I forgot to put the ear plugs in!)
On Tuesday I was checking the nuts and bolts in case something had come loose, but everything seemed in order. I certainly didn't see any evidence of this leak. The noise was worse today so I wondered if it was an oil issue. Went to check the oil (which seems ok) and found some black sticky stuff leaking.
I'm hoping the pictures might explain things a bit clearer.
I have a visit to the country this weekend and planned to take the bike, but obviously want to clear this up first.
Any idea what could be leaking here? (be nice. I'm not good with engines.)
Thanks.
