So I went out to the garage to warm my Grom up today, and I noticed this little puddle under it. It just seems to be dirty water (dirt may have been on the ground already), didn't have any smell and was clear. I looked and there's a small hose that's open on one end where the water seems to have come from.

Here is what I know:
Last time I rode it, the first weekend in Nov, was in the rain.
I have warmed it up to keep the battery charged 2-3 times since then.
The Grom is in the garage, but the weather here has been cold (neg temps at night, highs in the teens, maybe 20s for the past week).
The Grom has about 350 miles on it.
The only thing I've done to it is put on an MNNTHBX fender eliminator and one oil change. Haven't done anything around the engine.

I'm including pics of the puddle and the uncapped hose.

So, is this normal? Is there something bad going on? And if something is going on, any ideas what it could be and why?

If its water dont worry about it, if its oil then you have another issue, our bikes are air cooled so no coolant, and im sure you woulda smelled the gas if it was overflow from the tank.

Have you ever started a car and watch all the water come out of the exhaust pipes, muffler-cat, Its normal, cars also leak water fom ac compressors as well, sometime watrr just collects in weird places and dumps all out the first time you stand your bike upright

i think the big hint you have, is the last time you rode your grom was in the rain

Its just condensation dont worry about it man...mine did the exact same thing just the other day even the puddle looks identical

Are you sure you didn't put to much oil in it?

Mine had a little puddle like that after my oil change, but not as much. It was over filled just a tad im assuming, looked perfect on the dipstick though.

Yours is probably condensation though judging by the temps

mine did that the first time I rode it I was letting it warm up in the driveway and had the same puddle but its normal

Thanks for the responses guys! It was just water so I guess I'm good. Figured that was the case, since it started and seemed to be running fine, but wanted to check just to be on the safe side.

I don't think it has anything to do with the oil change. I did that at like 125 miles, way back in August or early Sept...

Condensation blowing out of the exhaust. You do have the stock exhaust, right?
