I can run a full quart and don't get anything from the vent hose unless I drop the bike. If it's spitting oil, I'd think you're getting positive pressure in the tranny. The only way for that to happen is a leaking RH crank seal. That's why I mentioned it....

Do you seem to find neutral any better if you run the full quart?
I run ATF Type F @ .8 liters. (top of site glass)
I still get a few drops leaking from the vent-tube after riding but it never really seems to effect the oil level.
Just curious if the full quart might help with finding neutral when it gets stubborn........
(Oh yeah,the spark arrester works great / THANKS ! )

julien_d said:Awesome, I'm glad it's working for you.
Dunno about finding neutral easier with a full quart. My clutch basket on the KDX is notched to death anyway, so finding neutral is always a bear. I know I can find it a lot easier with ATF in there than I can with 10w 40 though!
