Pink fluid from carb area?

What is the pinky / reddy coloured stuff that occasionally drips from somewhere around the carb?

I've always just wiped it away and got on with the ride but someone was saying that it is a sign of something more serious than the usual leaks.

Any ideas?

If you have Screaming Eagle air filter it might just be the fluid that has to be put on the washable filter, worth checking maybe :-/
