Do you see the little round filter (that is sticking straight up) that is under the carb filters ..... (in the middle of Pete's motor) ..... is that where you are talking?
I got a little and a lot of ribbing from Steve and Patton about using one of these filters in a similar thread and am glad to see your running one Pete.
You say you think you put too much oil in...... put the bike on the stand or have some one hold it level and check the sight glass... if its above the top drain a little till you get it in the middle.......if after you get the level to this point and its still spitting out a lot out of this port like Steve says you have more problems maybe a broken ring or another cause of pressure build up.
