    Did you (or the previous owner) flip the bike over or have it standing on the rear wheels for any length of time? If so (or you don't know) I'd clean that out first, just in case it was and try it again. If it still does it, I'd say you have excessive blowby.

    Rings and/or cylinder wear. Causes excessive pressure in the crankcase, blows it out the vent.

    Here's a good article

    You won't know till you take it apart (which costs nothing).

    ^Not to take it apart. Just to put it back together.

    your compression sounds nice, if you had bad rings or a worn piston wall it probably wouldint start that easy, id remove the hose thats attached to the engine, see if any comes out while running it, if u had enough compression to push oil out like that i dont see how it would run so easily.
