Hi Helge
This may help. When I put my 71 on the road, I noticed a few drops on the floor under where the drain hole was.
After a while I assumed I needed to top up the trans fluid, for this leak and others. After a 30 min ride, I stopped for fuel and saw a LOT of oil under teh bike. After riding more less and less came out until I forgot about it until this email. I read that the guzzi trans can tolerate lower levels but not higher fluid levels.
maybe you over filled yours. I have luckily not had any problems with oil on the clutch or anything.
