Hi, after a ride i found some oil in a small ammount near the connection of 2 parts of the engine. Now the leak is very small and it seems to come every time from another part of the connection. I think that i might have too much oil but i checked and it seems fine. What else could it be?

I would of left the excess in because the amount isn't a big deal and wouldn't of caused the leaks. And what to do next? Find the leak would be a start lol, someone mentioned a good way to find leaks by using talc powder/baby powder.

Wash the bike and wipe it all until clean and dry, put powder on the engine from where you suspect the leak to be from, run the bike while keeping an eye on any signs of oil.
