Yesterday I rode my new YZ250F on a race track for the first time. When I was done riding I noticed that the area around the left foot peg was wet. It looks like something (oil?) had been dripping out of the overflow tube (about 1/2 inch tube) that runs from the top of the engine, down the down tube, and ends right in front of the left foot peg.
What is the purpose of this tube. Is it an breather tube? Is it normal to see oil coming out of it? Is there anyway to put some coarse foam or something in the top of it to prevent oil from coming out?
