Check Your Fuel Filter

I would revisit the fuel filter quick connects, it is possible that they are not fully seated and locked. I've had this happen on cars that I have done fuel system work on and then started leaking. The connectors require more force than you realize to click the locks into place. Barring the fuel filter, check the routing of your fuel lines.

Another thing to consider is the OCS drain hose. That is the clear plastic tube that hangs down from the Oil Contaminant Separator with the black plastic plug. You are supposed to open and drain it every 100-150 miles. It contains a mixture of fuel and condensed water from out of the engine crankcase. The plug on yours may not be sealing, instead letting the fuel and water mixture leak out as you are riding the bike. The wind would then blow it back onto the skidplate. If you are not seeing an inch or two of condensate in your tube after a 100 mile ride, then yours is most likely leaking.
