Carbon build up??? Rvf
Going over my bike and have noticed a fair bit of either oil or carbon build up coming out of the rear cylinder head. Any body have any idea wheather it's just seals on there way out or is it something more.

Anything coming out of the cylinder head isn't a good thing, but were abouts is it coming out of, maybe the rocker cover gasket is seeping?

If your looking from the back of the bike its leaking from the gasket behind the ea shock if that makes sense. I would up load a pick but don't know how to on this website.
