i know this is a long shot, but ill try anyway. my vento started leaking oil like crazy yesterday, a day after i put in some 2stroke oil. its not as easy to see the oil level as on the spree, so i just added till i saw it up there in the tube.

ive never had this happen in my spree. could the oil tank have overfilled and started loosing oil? or can there be a hole somewhere? again i know its a longshot, but maybe somebody here can suggest something.

I have no clue, pics don't really help either. then again, I went to the eye doctor, and he said my eyes are 20/400, 20/20 is perfect and 20/10 is better than perfect. My eyes suck!

that is my guess too. there is no gauge for the oil, just a red dot thats supposed to come on when oil is low, like on the spree. other than that there is really now way to tell since from the top you can only see the tube and the tank itself is located farther down and out of view.

heres a pic of the oil tank:
