I run my oil level slightly below the top mark and it's fine. Just a slight misting if it's all the way up to the mark. Even then it's usually on a long trip. I never saw it on my jeans but a little on my pipes which would just take a wipe to clean off.

I put about 700 miles on her this weekend. Rode her pretty hard. Not one drop of oil from the breather bolts! I run mine about 1/4 quart low.
