If it is coming out of the kickstart then it is probably the seal. Not a hard fix, you need to pull the cover off and pop the seal out. You need to figure out exactly where the oil is coming from first though.

Now then I grabbed a pic. (excuse the filthy bike!)
It's only dripped the once but obviously I know realise it's the opposite side to the sprocket! I'm gonna give it a really good clean over the weekend the. Keep an eye on it but won't be using it too soon as te forks are leaking too :-( lol

Right iv got the fork seals done and been for an awesome ride today however there is still a slight leak here. Am I better doing this at the same time as an oil change (does the oil need to be drained?) are any special tools required and finally where can I source a seal for this or what is it called?
