I found a quarter sized transmission fluid leak under my bike.
was fine all winter, then about a month ago I fired it up and let it come up to temp etc, then put it back away. Next day I go out and there's a little spot of Bruce Jenner fluid on the ground. and the underneath of the frame etc was all wet. Felt like it was coming from the transmission/clutch cable .

reading online, sounds like a fairly common issue is some sort of bug/critter (like a mud dobber) to make it's home in the transmission vent tube. The tube gets clogged, can't vent, so the pressure tries to escape via the o-ring where the clutch cable enters the transmission.

I haven't checked yet, but I hope this is the case. it makes sense. Hell, it sat all of last winter with no issues. Never had a drop of any fluid leak from that bike. Getting transmission cover off, is typical of HD.....gotta take off the pipes (or at least loosen) so you can get to the bottom bolts of the transmission cover. Really don't want to have to mess with all that.

Would rather just clean out the vent tube if it's clogged, clean up the bottom of the bike, etc, and be done with it.
