First of all have you a scot oiler? Some times after a big run or if youve oiled the chain a little too much all the oil gets spun up to the front after a hard run and forms on the gear lever area.

There is a seal on the shaft of your gear lever, mine seemed to be leaking after a few hard runs but after i kept an eye on it was fine. Bought the seal anyway just in case i wanted to fit it or the bike decided to spill its gutts onto the garage floor.
