hmm .. I have been running around Manassas and Leesburg lately. All kinds of crap on the road out in the sticks!

I believe it is a collection of excess electrons. This is generally caused by running the engine at very low rpms.
You need to run that baby down the highway and around the twisties in excess of 4500 rpms. If you do this on a regulor basis
(5000 rpms is better) you will probably never see this buildup occur ever again.
On the other hand, it could just be crud picked up off the road. Have you run through any pigshit, as of late?

Its got to be some type of road debris or oil from filter. It cant be from the steering neck as there is nothing that I know of that can drip from there according to the dealer on our dyna models. If it was a softail the neck would be your grimlin, the dealer I visist often is always wiping the floor beneathe them first thing in the morning. He says the softail neckhas parifin for lube and it always hits the floor beneath the necks during the summer months when the a/c is off over nite. Hope you find a sulution soon.
