Forgive me if I am stating the obvious, but if the bike had wet sumped without you knowing and you topped the tank up, then gone for a ride, oil will pour out from the top of the tank.

I guess you would see this though.

If only it were this simple. No, this happened after a 60 mile ride after the oil got good and hot. The bike hadn't wet sumped, and the oil was coming from somewhere near the bottom of the tank. Really is baffling. I'll be filling the tank with fuel and checking in a bit.
I know what I'm up against now. I've got a pinhole through the bottom of the tank near the drain plug. I would assume its from a corroded spot. I'll try to weld it up at work this week.
