    After some trails today I noticed some White liquid coming from what I believe to be the crankcase breather (small pipe coming from the cases just under the carb) so I opened up the gearbox oil filler plug and had a look inside with a torch and it looks like the gearbox oil is White, I changed the gearbox oil yesterday so it ain't old.
    I've checked the coolant and it doesn't seem to have lost any

    Any ideas ?

    just a thought would that breather suck in water ? i went through a deepish puddle todat pretty fast enough to cover the engine im just wondering if that breather would have sucked water into the gearbox ??

    Yes. If you ride wet areas relocate trans. and carb vents up to airbox.

    +1 a must do! top 2 upward facing carb breathers & c/case breather. just make sure you bend em back so theyre facing downwards so water doesnt get in. wont happen again & bike wont die in water crossings either. flush tranny coupla times n all good

    yep in deep water it cools the air volume in the case and sucks water
