My R1100GS has always had a little oil staining (ohh err) on the front cover, but after whizzing around north Wales for the last few days this seems a bit more extensive.

Anyone else had this? Something to get sorted sooner rather than later or leave it until next in for a service?

Yes, I know the oil in the sight glass looks full, but it's just up to the top of the red circle - trust me :)

TIA

I had exactly this on my old GS. Thanks to an inmate here The fix was as simple as tightening up all the bolts. I was really surprised how loose some head become!

Not sure yet, I've nipped the bolts to 9Nm as the manual says, a couple were a bit lose, now just have to wait and see
