Hi All,

On Harleys,  I think that most have dry-sump oil pumps which have external tanks outside of the oil pan.  This additional tank may be leaking and  I think, can be found around or under the seat of the motorcycle(s).

I hope that this helps and good luck!

Thank you for the responses. To clarify, the bikes have been drained but we still get drips. Having the oil pads down is just not aesthetically pleasing so we are trying to find some way to stop the drips or a better option than oil pads.
