Posts: 271 Belding Michigan | I was out riding on Sunday and after I got home I parked the bike in its usual spot and later found two puddles of oil under the bike. I checked to see where it was from and found the whole underside of the engine was coated with oil.
I talked to the dealer and they said bring it in and they would look at it right away however work being what it is I can not get away right now. I cleaned the engine off and started the bike after checking the oil level whick is about 1/2 quart low and did not see where the oil is coming from but I think based on the puddles and what I can determine it may be the oil cooler lines or connection that is leaking I will fill in the blanks after I get it looked at.

| Oil pressure sensor....There is a rubber boot looking thing on your left side as you sit on the bike. The boot covers a thingamabob called a pressure sensor/dummy light sensor. There is a wire leading to it as well. Replace it as soon as possible, it will erupt soon. It is a known problem, but Victory will claim it is the first they have heard of it....

| make sure it is oil. i had the same problem and it was gas from a leaking gas cap. it happened on asphalt so it looked like oil until i sniffed it. |
