Guys, today while I started the engine a few drops of water and oil dropped from the silencer. There's a tiny hole underneath it rite. From there. I clicked the pics to show you guys just in case if it is not normal.
When I bent down to check, the underbelly of the engine is covered with oil. And oil level has dropped significantly.
Am getting a bit anxious for this cause I have a ride planned this January and hope there's no serious issue.

The water droplet is Ok...The oil you see may be from lubricating the Chain with oil.....IF NOT then check the Neutral switch connector..it will be leaking oil,and you need to change it...costs about 30/-....

Ok sir got it! And ive observed that every time I start the engine, a lot of tiny droplets spray on the ground as soon as it starts from the silencer hole at the bittom and later they stop falling. A lot of drops fall off that's the reason am concerned. But when I smelt the drops, it smelt like a mixture of oil and petrol. Am not so sure.

Inside the compound. Centre stand. And the bike is used for less than a km in a day from the past 2 weeks. Cause there's no college. Could this be anyway related to the problem?

Pure white just can't penetrate rain/fog good enough. So if you can't change your stand on pure white light there is no bulb that can help.

Well this is just physics being a b!Tc#

You want a bulb that can provide better rain/fog visibility, choose something from 3000k to 4300k spectrum

Had been looking for auxiliary lights for the bike but just couldn't find anything. Finally managed to import some stuff from taiwan and got a 32w led projector, ended up fitting a single one near the rvm:

Painted it in black this evening:

All lights turned off:

Just auxiliary lights on:

Will post daytimes pics of the setup in the morning.

Is it street legal?
Don't the cops object to the auxiliary light?

In all honesty I am not certain on what the law says with respect to secondary lighting

This setup is mainly for use when touring and certainly not within the city

don't intend to disturb anybody

Bro why don't you shift it a bit down? You have seen my bike where thr mech has drilled extra holes and inserted a nut to damp vibrations rite. Its on the side fairing where air vents are present. In a similar way you can get a clamp in there and fix the auxiliary there rite. It would look much better and since its quite low, functionality and safety wise both it would be better.

Actually I was looking at the least invasive method as it's just for a short period till I sell my bike.

Moreover after the paintjob I am extremely satisfied with the way it looks, also with the current position I can always reposition the beam to my liking even while riding

Please post pics of your soon to be daily ride here first before you create a new thread. Sadly, I won't be able to accompany you to MLR, but would be thrilled to meet you both at Gokarna.
