    I saw a tiny drop of oil in my garage.  I looked under the bike and saw that one of the oil pan screws was moist with oil.  Did replacing the screws solve the leak?

    Possibly, but its more likely to be the sealant between the sump and block.

    I had similar issue, last year. Just re sealed it and new screws. All good now. Use good quality rtv like LOCTITE SI 5699 - GREY Maxx. Tightening screw won't do anything. You can run a bead of rtv on outside but it's only a bandage, still will leak.

    Gen-1 or Gen-2...?? If Gen-2 they have a water pump/oil pump weep hole in the rear of the sump which has a small internal O-ring on a tube which can leak leading to oil leaks...worth checking at least.

    Pardon my ignorance, but please explain.  Do you mean oil pan gasket?

    There is no gasket. Only RTV silicone.
    SimonUK posted the instructions have a look.

    Yeah, as "AdventureXR" mentions...no gasket, they just use sealant.
