this is most likely because you do not drain your sump when you change the oil. There is too much oil, so the sump forces it into the air box.

It comes from the crank case breather line that goes to the air box..

This is normal if you get on an incline or do wheelies...


nothing to worry about..

Iyt would be a good idea since you have oil in the airbox to change the crankcase breather filter.
