Ok, after a hard 4 mile ride down local trails, while i was lifting the wheeler in the back of my truck, i noticed the front tip of the frame and inner parts of the a-arms were dripping with clean engine oil. At first i was stumped, until i noticed there was a 1/4" rubber hose right above that. I figured it was a vent hose, but...
Anyone know why i would be loosing oil out of that? I noticed that i drip a lil oil from the case seals, so i put in a little more oil than its supposed to have, and change the oil every other week. And the oil check window is useless, too. Hope thats enough info. I think this winter i will go thru the motor, but for now i'm just wondering why the oil is coming out. The ride just consisted of 40% wide open and 60% 10"-18" rythem sections, most were wheelied thru, and a few bigger ones i was able to double, nothing real crazy.
 
not sure why its comeing out the hose but too much oil in the crank case can blow your crank seals i believe if im wrong someone will be along to corect me lol
