What does it mean if my bike is leaking oil through a hose...?

I just got a suzuki sport bike brand new and i got about 350 miles on it now. i am still learning to ride it so i am not to rough on it but today i noticed it was leaking oil, rite by the back brake there are three hoses i am guessing there for breathing of some sort well the bigger one is leaking oil and i checked the crank case and there is still plenty oil could it be they just over filled it? also when i first start it now it blows a little white smoke out the exhaust?What does it mean if my bike is leaking oil through a hose...?
The motor oil have been over filled. I would be very careful when sitting still at a light or stop sign, your rear wheel would be covered with motor oil.What does it mean if my bike is leaking oil through a hose...?
so take it back to the dealer. it has problems.
If still in break in it will have a small amount of blow by untill it seats the rings If it does not stop then worry about it
Still the dealer problem so just take it there. I bet it's nothing to worry about just some oil that accumulated during the assembly of the bike. The smoke is most likely form burning off the water vapor that accumulates in the pipe, all bikes will do this especially on a cold morning, really stop worrying and have fun on the thing it's a good bike.
The white smoke part is a red flag. Take the bike back to the dealer.
