1996 Kawasaki VN 1500 Vulcan Classic oil leak in the lower back of the engine

Got an oil leak on the lower back of the engine. I have not found the point where the leak is, need to dig into the engine more but it does look like it may be the gear box. It does not leak when it is sitting but if I ride it and stop it will leak for about 2 or 3 min. and no more. Any ideas before I start taking parts off look for a leak. also no oil anywhere else.

SOURCE: Oil leaking from under the seat of my Kawasaki klr250

not sure if this will help, but the crank case has a breather tube that is around that area. if the bike is on its side or has been doing wheelies, some oil can get thru the breather hose causing that problem.

Check the ground wire at the battery, at the negative post at the battery you'll find a smaller (black/yellow) wire, it must be plugged into the main harness, it might have become unplugged, the connections will be right close to the battery.

Where is the bleeder for Vulcan 1500 clutch?

It is under the left engin cover. You have to remove the shifter and the footpeg or floorboard too. Then remove the 4 or 5 allen bolts and the cover will come right off. No oil or anything will leak when this cover is removed. You will see the clutch slave cylinder behind this cover. I found the best way to bleed the clutch is to fill the master and open the slave and let it drip for a while (gravity bleed) Do not let the cylinder at top run low while you are doing this. After a 10 minutes or so, tighten slave then refill cylinder and do the old pump and drain bleed a few times. I found that it works better with the cover installed on the cylinder when pumping to bleed clutch.
