smell after oil change

Hey folks,
I've read and seen remedies for the smell that follows oil changes in these units, but I can't find those fixes anywhere. :P Could someone point me to them or re-explain the procedure please? Thanx!

Re:smell after oil change

once the oil is broken in the smell will disipate some. Another thing you might want to do is to relocate your crankcase breather bottle. Hope this helps!!!
