IT had too much oil in it. I had this problem wiht my sawtooth. Someone put too much oil in it and the pressure pushes it back through the injectors into the air filter.

There must have been too much oil in it.....or the bike was sitting on its side for a while.

Well I can tell you it wasnt sitting on its side, sitting on its back end, running hard or anything else. Took it in today and had them change the oil, filter, air filter, and prefilter. So far everything is cool. Keeping an eye on it. Thanks for the input!! Get some pics whenever I can.

What I meant about it sitting on it's side was before you owned it as in "what was the bikes history" before you recieved it. From factory production to dealer and in and the time it spent at the dealer. sorry

No need to apologize H20 just letting you know that I didnt cause it. It had to have been overfilled by the wonderful techs. They pay so much attention to detail these days. I rode it a bit yestarday and all is well. Raining here the rest of the week so it's gonna be sitting in the shed til it stops. Thanks
