Hey,
Brought a second hand 2014 Outlander 400 off a dealer and after the first ride there was a heap of oil in the airbox. Long story short, the original dealer eventually decided to send parts to my local dealer to do a top-end rebuild because of a worn piston and cylinder, assuming the problem was blow by.
Just got the bike back after the rebuild and took it for a ride, and a wee way down the road I noticed oil dripping out of the airbox. Got back home, pulled the airbox cover off and, sure enough, oil in the airbox again.
Bike hasn't been on its side, oil level wasn't over full. Cleaned the airbox and went for a quick blast down the road with a slightly lower than normal oil level to eliminate that theory and still oil blowing up out of the crank case vent.
Anyone have similar issues? Ideas of the problem or any fixes?
Cheers in advance, Bootch.
