250-500cc Where'd my gear oil go?

    Ok, maybe a stupid question but.... In my 2010 wr300, I've noticed after extended rides there is no oil left in the gear case. No noticeable weeping, drops or excessive smoke. I know in a 2t the gear case is separate but is there a way the oil could be burning off in the top end somehow? I just competed a98 mile run and upon completingtthere's only maybe 4 tablespoons in the drain pan!
    I'm changing out the clutch bc it started slipping towards the end and now it's pretty evident why. What do you guys think?

    Most likely the crank seal on the trans side is bad, you can usualy smell the gear oil burning and white smoke.

    I should probably do both sides so it doesn't lean out so I hear, come to think of it, it has smelled funny
