Overfilling your transmission.
That is your transmission breather hose.

Or the primary is overfilled. That hose also vents the primary through the hollow transmission mainshaft.

Or a leak between the primary and the transmission if the primary is overfilled?

Some of my riding buddies pulled that stunt in me when I first got my bike (24 years ago). While I was at breakfast, a large oil slick mysteriously appeared under my bike.

Think the indi over filled it then since he had the side cover plate off and said oh I used the wrong size bottle and opened the drain twice to let some out. Guess he didn't let enough out. It was alight brownish color.
