Lets start @ the beginning.
While on vacation in the mountains I got a little to brave and stupid at the same time. I tried a turn around on a steep incline and laid the bike down. I used every muscle in my body to let it down as slow as I could. Just a few scratches on the mirror and bar end, as well as a scuff in the paint on my front fairing. Picked it up and rode away after smacking myself in the face. A couple days later I noticed 2 quarter size puddles of oil. One dripping of the kickstand and the other coming from a drain hose. I didn't think much of it, other than the drain line is doing what it is supposed to do. Bike stills runs like it did before the drop. Almost a week after I laid it down, I rode it into work this morning. The oil light came on as soon as I pulled out of my driveway and lasted for about 5 minutes then shut off. Then it happened again five minutes later and lasted for about ten minutes until I got to work and shut off the bike. Oil level is ok, oil is clean, bike runs like it should. Only other thing I can think of is the sensor got knocked loose...
Any other thoughts/suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
