    Could be a leaky capacitor. If so, you'll want to replace the unit before it quits and/or before the corrosive fluid eats stuff up.

    Don't think is a capacitor leak - looks like the encapsulation resin breaks down or melt. View attachment 28308
    Use a silver tape to stop it from leaking. View attachment 28309
    Hope this work. Note sure what cause it to melt though.

    Go on Ebay and buy one. I would'nt run your bike with that burned oot piece as I would be afraid it destroying other stuff.
