    If The bike was leaking due to loose oil filter, you would end up having much more than just a drip. The shift shaft seal is more than likely your culprit and needs to be pushed back or changed if worn. This seal is notorious for sliding out over time, causing drips here and there. If you notice it BEFORE it draws to the back of the bike after riding, you should be able to clearly see it leaking on the left side of the bike coming from the shaft area itself. After pushing the seal in and cleaning the area, some have cut a small piece of semi-rigid hose (fuel hose) and snapped it in the exposed area of the shift shaft to prevent the seal from popping out again. Hope this helps!
