P1000 Leaky brake line

[Highcountry356]

2020 Pioneer 1000-5 with 425 miles.

I took my machine for a 10 mile ride a couple weeks ago and then parked it in the garage. Today I noticed a big fluid spot on the floor - on the inside of the front diver's side tire. I haven't had time to pull the wheel and get a better look but it appears like the leak is in the brake line at the spring clamp shown in the center of the attached photo. Anyone else run into this? I have an extended warranty but don't think this is covered.

I'm having a hard telling how much fluid is the reservoir. I was going to screw the cap off for a look see but the owners manual says not to remove the cap or add any fluid to bring it to a delaer. What's up with that?

Do the brakes feel spongy or weak?

Warranty should have no problem covering that if it is infact leaking. Doesnt look like anything has hit the line. I havent ever seen any brake line issues, except for wrecks.

They dont want people "topping" off brake fluid, because if you do, when the pads are replaced the master cylinder would then be overfull. Also the master cylinder should never be low, if it is then more serious issues are behind it.

Same here. Shock oil is dripping down onto brake line.
