i mean it just starts dripping as soon as i take the dipstick out ? does it do that when it cold or hot???? should i change my oil put some fresh in because i had my engine put back together after new timing chain and stuff and i put new oil i it and i rode all day long you think and i jsut checked it and it did that think i should change it ??

Nothing to worry about, oil drips...if it didn't it would be called butter.

it will drip but not like water..it should be noticably thicker

try using 20w-50 since its summer time..thats what i run and 10w-40 during the winter months..
