It is indeed running down from the top - wrapped the fork leg in tissue and now know that it's coming down in a tiny stream at the back, under the upper fork slider cover, and running round the fender tab on to that bolt.

No pooling in the triple tree recess - I'd looked at that already.

I thought it must be the fork seal, (since it's under the slider cover) but now you have me thinking..... I best have the fairing off to look. How did you cure it, just tighten the cap?

Jim, the best cure for that pesky problem is a set of Traxxion AK-20 cartridges. New seals come with the cartridges.

Glad I could help.

Trying to make me spend more money, as usual Chiefy!

I like to think of it as looking out for you.

          Me again, hopefully you should find lose cap at the top of the fork leg, if you find it to be tight, you will have to look for a missing o-ring.

No had a look above the triple tree yesterday - no oil up there.  Has to be a seal. :-(

Jim,
You found the problem yet?  It's gotta be driving you crazy.

Has to be the seal, I think. Goodness only knows why it decided to start leaking in the hallway in the middle of winter with nobody near the bike!
