for those having trouble with oil in the air box,cf moto is coming out with a updated crank case breather hose kit that is supposed to remedy this problem. Will try and keep you updated when I find out more.

I am having this problem on my ZForce 500 and it drips oil on my garage floor.The dealer says that they have a fix,not a recall? They fixed it for me and said a little oil in the airbox is normal.

BUT OTHER DEALERS WILL JUST KEEP SELLING DEFECTIVE UNITS TO UNWARY CUSTOMERS!  IF I ONLY KNEW LAST NOVEMBER WHAT I KNOW NOW!

Used to have the same issue on built Rhino's a small recovery bottle inline in the breather tube fixed it because it allowed the oil to settle there and drain back into the engine.  Im sure that is what CF Moto will be doing.
I can imagine a world completely at peace.  A world where there are no weapons, no war, and no violence at all.  And I can imagine us taking over that world because they would never expect it.

This was a repair as needed issue. Not all machines are affected. Call your dealer and tell them what is going on. A bulletin has been released several months ago on how to remedy this if the symptom should present itself. Playing the victim card on this forum is only going to frustrate you even more, just communicate with your dealer that you have said concern
