Default Oil in my breather box on my P650

I am trying to find out if anyone else is experiencing the same problem I am. I keep finding oil pooled in the bottom of the air box on my Prarie 650. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
David

this question has been asked before do a search there are many reasons for this oil prob. more than likely your crankcase is too full either with oil or oil and GAS. check it and be sure . always turn your gas off after you ride

Buddy of mine had this problem constantly, whether the oil was overfull or not. Took it in to the dealer, they found 50% leakdown on one cylinder and 60% on the other. Turns out the cylinders were out of round, apparently caused bt the factory forgetting to put in piston pin clips, must have been letting the pistons walk from side to side a bit, this is what they said. Cylinders, pistons, rings, etc were done on warranty, which was good, but makes you wonder doesn't it. Oh yeah, to get back to the topic of the thread, it was the compression blowing by the rings that was blowing the oil into his air box. I just hope his was the only one.
