There shouldn't be oil in that area. Must have a crankshaft seal leaking into it. Hope its not to hard of a fix.

Drain the oil and fuel, roll out some old carpet and lay the bike over onto its right side. With a small screwdriver or awl pry the rubber grommet away from the case, spray solvent in there and force new sealant into the gap, work your away along until the grommet has new sealant all around. Use sealant that is compatible with oil such as Hylomar, not silicon.

Yes, the alternator is oil cooled.

Thanks Gary, I’ll get some Hylomar and try it.

Sorry to hear about your troubles.
Hope it’s a fairly easy and inexpensive fix.

It’s the rubber grommet that the stator wires go through. It right behind the kickstand. I put a 2x4 underneath the kickstand and it stopped leaking for now. When it warms up I’ll do what Gary suggested, pull out the grommet and reseal with Hylomar non-setting sealant.

(Yes, the alternator is oil cooled. )
I remember reading about this in another thread now. And talking about it at a rally with someone. Thought it was strange that the stator was bathed in oil. We had a starter on Luke's bike that the seal went bad and filled it with oil. Should be simple, straight forward fix.
