:789 Tomhell,
Is this gunk a milky colour? If it is then the oil has moisture in it,usually caused by the bike parked outside or short runs where the oil doesn't get chance to reach high temperatures.
Take it for a long run,enough for the moisture to evaporate.If the milkiness persists,change the oil and filter.
