i got a 03 r6 , my friend dropped the bike on the left side and when we picked it up , oil started dripping out . im new to bikes but what could be the problem ??

 

hi i have an o3 r6 as well , i dont know if it is possible , but the oil filter is on that side and it could have possibly punctured it? check that out and good luck with it man!

 

you should give your friend a mysterious blood leak from his head.

 

pretty sure its the stator cover. Probably got a small crack in it somewhere.

 

its not the oil filter , it is coming from that cover tho , is that bad ??

I would have to agree, the only fix is retribution. knock him out!
A quick fix would be letting a professional tell you what the problem is. Most likely needs money to plug the leak.

haha na tryin to teach my friend how to ride the bike , and underestimated the throttle .

i fell before , i aint ashamed of it -=D

but what is a stator ?? lol

 

its the ignition cover(stator cover). I bought a brand new one for my f4i off ebay for 65bux. Check out ebay for some.

Either that or you can get jb weld and put some on. I used it on my ex500 stator cover. That thing had a huge hole and cracks everywhere. I couldnt find one on ebay so i jb welded it. worked fine.

 

I've got like 5 ex500 case covers...

If mine gets cracked again..Sell me one!

 

the stator is an alternator for a bike.....the stator cover is the cover on the lower left side sticking out of the fairing

not to sound extremely stupid , but why would oil come out of the stator then ??

Bikes have wet alternators. They are soaked in oil just like the clutch discs.
