I've got a 05 z400 with a problem that just surfaced. I changed the oil the other day in my z, let it run for about 2 minutes then shut it off. I let it set for one minute & went to check the oil level. When I unscrewed the dipstick out of the oil tank, it shot oil everywhere. Not a little oil...I mean the entire oil tank. What in the world would cause this? Bike is stock except for a moto works slip on. It has never done this before. Thanks.
