Werlcome to the forum. You need to put a post in the Yamaha and/or the repair sections. You will need to add what size, model and year your bike is and maybe when you noticed the problem and what led up to it. You will need 3 posts before you can start one, so look around on here and add your opinion a couple of times and you are good to go.

Welcome

Alot of times if the oil is overfull it will push it into the aircleaner. If the oil smells like gas you may have a float sticking. Make sure the fuel is off when sitting if it doesn't have an off make sure it isn't on prime.
