After about 200 miles check you air box and pull of the cover. I find every few hundred miles you need to clean out the oil mist or it will leak out but the clutches. I think the rollover valve vent need to find a new home. Maybe out under the sled.

My dealer told me to keep the oil level near the low line to stop venting that crap. I did and have very little residue .I was worried if it’s vented some where cold it could freeze up with the moisture and pop the seal anyway. Fabio said his started leaking. Makes me wonder

I had mine at half maybe I can try dropping to the line. Right now it still makes a mess.

I did a 900km ride last week and had very little residue when I put it away yesterday for the season.

Yes MrSled I just ran the hose to the bottom of the belly pan, between 0 to 780km my sled had oil everywhere on the left side due to the oil coming out of the air box, not sure why I had so much but I did.
My oil has been about half way between the lines since I did the first oil change at 780km, and last week noticed a slight film on the lower bolt of the oil tank. I also don’t see the black gasket sealant popping out where it’s leaking like I do around the rest of the case.

thank you. I know the stock factory seal on the tanks is just a matter of time before they leak.

How I found out about the oil going into the air box was I had the sled running with the side panel off and heard something rattling in the air box, when I opened the air box there was a good amount of frozen oily sludge rattling around. Since than I removed the hose from air box.
