yea tell me about it i near sh*t a brick when i seen the level on mine, or should i say didnt see the level. was right down the bottom. much better now seems to have cured the noise too. cheers guys.

if its red it could just be the oil from the pre oiled filter (they usually put i good lot on), just clean it up with a rag or cloth but just keep an eye on it. my k&n did the same.

i poured water over the light with the boot open and could see it dripping inside.

i just sorted mine out. if you take out the rear lights (2 10mm hex heads under plastic caps) you may see some corrosion. seems to be a weak spot. i just used some black silicone for short term but dont think it worth takin any more action unless the water returns. just pull the small plugs out an the water will empty out. good luck mate
