Had the exact same issue yesterday Vince. Pulled into Hawes and thought my boot was slippy, looked down and oil everywhere. Including the full length of the bike and the back tyre. A helpful chap who was decorating some shop windows had an adjustable spanner and some Allen keys so the bottom oil cooler pipe was nipped up, it was less then finger tight! Called for a washer at Shipley (Ducati Leeds) where the great parts man gave me the required washer he said he couldn’t charge me 22p. All was cleaned in Hawes with my dads old mcn in his rucksack from this week at work but always had it in the back of my mind so kept stopping to check. One lucky escape after the spirited ride from ribblehead
