Jonway 150cc and I've noticed a pretty significant oil leak. Can't tell exactly where it's coming from. It runs fine, but when I park it I can see a lot of oil within minutes.

It's either the head gasket, valve cover gasket or cylinder base gasket.

Take the plastic side panels off and clean it good. Then start it on the centerstand so you can monitor where it is coming from. When you locate the source report back in and some one will be able to tell you the next step. If it is a lot of oil I would be careful about riding it as the engine does not have much oil in reserve and can run out easily.

If it is coming from the Right side by the Fan is most likely the crank oil seal on that side. If it is dripping from the front of the motor most likely the valve cover is leaking. If it is dripping by the CVT and you have an air box it is from the VALVE cover vent hose and the filter is clogged with oil and not letting it breath.
So tell us where about the oil is dripping from under the motor. Alleyoop

I have a 2013 Roketa 150cc and it is leaking a lot of oil from underneath the left aluminum panel. I've only had the bike for three weeks and have only driven it 30 city miles, not hard miles. What can be causing this major oil leak and how can I fix it? Thanks for the input.
