I had this problem on my 3aj. It was the valve stem seals. I replaced them and re-lapped the valves - end of problem.

Check oil level
Hi Antonis,
Is it possible that you have overfilled the engine with oil? If you are not familiar with these dry sump engines it is easy to make this mistake. If it is badly overfilled it might cause the problem you describe. To get a true oil level reading you must ride the bike for at least 5 minutes, let it tick over for 30 seconds or more and check using the dip stick that is part of the oil filler cap as soon as you switch the engine off. You must hold the bike vertical and don't screw the cap on, just rest it on top to make the reading. I hope that it is this, it would be simple to fix. Mark |
