Just got back to Yorkshire from a quick tour to Scotland and around the isle of Skye to find oil under and to the back of the left hand cylinder.
At first it looked like the cylinder base gasket, but, after cleaning the oil up a few times to try and find where it was coming from, I found it to be the oil pressure switch leaking from the very end.
Sorted with £8 replacement from Motorworks, arrived 2 days. changed in 5 minutes.
R1150R 2001 Red on Z6s in England. Done 30,000 miles.
So, how was Scotland? Grew up there and plan to return for a M/C tour one day.
Last year I was home and was attentive to road surfaces, twisties etc. Can't wait to blast up around Loch Lomand, the roads are superb....when it's not raining!

You are limiting yourself to about two weekends in June if you wait for no rain! I toured Scotland several years ago the week before Easter - I almost froze my final drive off crossing the highlands!
