Hmm, what a bugger.
are there any black puddles under your bike when you stop?
you dont provide much info.
Brian (motorite) knows his stuff. It shouldnt use any oil but clearly yours is.
what level is the oil in the sight glass
- cold? - should be at the bottom mark
- hot? - should be at the top mark
- the plug sounds rich - what size jets/exhaust system/mods does it have?
- why do friends sauy its using oil when they watch? i assume blue smoke but you dont say why.
- what did swampy say? he is the guru. take it to him.
mine only use oil when its leaking. none (touch wood) have ever burnt it.
I presume you bought it secondhand at 300 miles but who owned it before and how had it been ridden?
- Can you not contact them - their name and address is on your V5?
- I suggest you post the same question on Advrider.com there are some gurus there too, but you'll need to provide more info.
