2011 prowler 700 oil in air box

Keep getting a lot of oil in my air box, is this common or something I should be concerned about. Didn't seem to do it till the engine blew and now with the rebuild it is still doing it. First engine went 500 miles and I have 800 on the bike now.

who rebuilt your engine? id be asking him to fix it. sounds like you are getting blowby causing excess crankcase pressure resulting in oil being pushed into your airbox.

I'd say anywhere around 140 is healthy
