      Either too much oil, or pressure coming from the crank or water pump.

        Came to the same conclusion, he uses strawberry "smell" 2 stroke oil, transmission oil smells of strawberry's, looks like new crank seal has failed after only 400 miles, not happy.

            @oldman Yeah that's frustrating for sure.

              Turns out it's the oil pump case seal, easy fix, no worries!
