Mine did (new '03 ST).  It took 4 tries before they identified the source (a
gasket sealing the front sprocket).  To their credit, they seem to have
gotten it right, and they stressed that no amount of oil leaking is
acceptable.  They seem to want to squash the old "traditions"...

Matt, glad to hear they got yours resolved.  What was the source?
