Mostly likely fluid is contaminated with water. Check O-ring, flush and refill with fresh fluid.

Warm bike up good I mean real good. change it. check vent. Builds up over time if you don't get it hot and or vent is plugged up. Not a bad idea to spend some time pull trans cover and clean it up.

Don't stick your dipstick in it. Now it's gone a bad direction.
