Oil smells Like gas

I changed my oil friday evening and it kinda smelled like gas.

common issue....as long as it is not so much fuel that the oil turns milky...if that happens you have an issue

Well if that does happen whats causing it?

[Q. O. R.]

could be bad rings, piston, cylinder or all of the above.

it's caused from riding a race quad in tight trials, riding like a girl, etc, that is made to be at half to full throttle at all times....lol it doesn't mean your rings are bad. You can go put around on a brand new LTR, the first oil change will smell like fuel. Honestly...all you guys should take a sniff at your oil sometime...you will be surprised at what you smell. Like I said, not an issue till you have so much of it in the oil that it turns milky, or causes the crank breather to puke it out....then you have an issue
