Hi everyone,

Video and pictures. Video was taken today, pictures are about a week old.

I have a 2012 250r and I found my bike knocked over recently. The right handlebar is slightly bent, the fairing is cracked, and the blinker was crushed in the fall but still works. The biggest problem is that I lost a good amount of engine oil, shown in the pictures. I had known about and been monitoring a leak for ~6 months before this and have never had to refill the reservoir. Now it is way below the minimum level. I don't know where the leak is located, and I'm trying to find out where it is. Has anyone had this problem before or know where the leak might be coming from?

I haven't tried riding the bike yet, but I'll obviously add more oil before I do.
