so for anyone at taco hell tonight, my bike is now in pieces, and theres a large stab wound to my hand. but i know now. its all good training...im better prepared for first aid now. so theres a gearbox vent tube that vents to the airbox. below this vent tube in the airbox is another vent tube for the airbox, which i assume is to let out any fluid buildup in the box. this second tube was plugged. oil was chilling in my airbox with no way out, just building up from the pressure caused by me overfilling it. This is the cause of the leak i was experiencing. there may have been some oil leaking from the shifter thing but it is minimal if at all. seems like a bunch of chain lube buildup. so after taking my bike apart down to the frame, i have the airbox drying after a good scrubbing, and im going to go buy a new air filter tomorrow. another big thank you to all who helped out tonight.
