Default Suzuki SV650s oil leak?

I have a SV650s 2001 it had a full service about 2 months ago, and I noticed today it has sprung a very slow oil leak on the underside of the engine, the window shows it has plenty of oil, any ideas what it could be and how to fix?

If you just had service (and it included an oil change), there are two good places to check first.

1. Check the drain plug.

2. Check the oil filter. If its not screwed in tight, or the o-ring got messed up, that would cause your drip.

Although, unscrewing either of those is going to drain all the oil thats in there.

Check the drain plug for the oil. It is possible that it could need to be tightened.
