Ninja Leaking
Hi, i'm fairly new to this forum, a couple weeks ago I bought a black 2009 ninja 250. The past couple of days i have noticed that something is leaking onto the right side of my engine and i'm not sure what it is. If anybody knows what it is please help because I have no clue how big of a problem it is. Thanks

Take the fairing off dude for a better view of everything.
Kinda wana say its the bond you put on the valve gasket when you do the valve adjustment. Not sure though Have you done anything to it recently?

Is that the clutch cable? If so, it is could be coolant.
Or maybe a bird is nesting under your tank.

Hard to tell, but my first thought was lube from a cable.

I took the fairing off last night and cleaned everything and I think it may be coolant because in the picture its right next to the clutch cable but I don't know because my coolant level is still the same as before i went riding today.

It wouldn't be that color, and dry, if it was coolant.

coolant bottle, probably dripping from cap since reservoir is overfull.
