i put a full quart into my 93' 200, and after riding for an hour or two oil was dripping from the bottom of my airbox. after i opened it up, there was a small puddle of transmission oil at the bottom of the airbox. is that normal?

You did over fill the transmission and the vent line goes to the air box so any overflow will pool up in there. I wouldn't worry about it too much just keep an eye on the oil level and make sure that there is not excessive pressure in the transmission pushing the oil out.

Sure it was tranny oil?

Yes, if you laid it over at all. I run a full quart in my E bike and never have oil up there unless I drop the bike.
