I would suspect it's going to be the left side exhaust gasket or from the head gasket area on that side... which I hope for your sake it is not.
Check the "S" hose that runs between the crankcase and the air box. If you are lucky, that dislodged and you had some spray come out. However, if that were the case, you could have noticed the bike lose a good bit of power and start to bet sluggish and/or bucky.
You have to figure out where it came from before you can fix it  |
No luck with the 'S' hose, it's there and on tight.
The head gasket sounds a bit ominous. I priced one, seems cheap enough, and that tells me it might be a lot of work to replace it. Just guessing here, but wouldn't I have lost a good bit of power and speed if that is the problem. I don't know, just thinking and hoping.
Any idea how big of a job it is?
