Since checking the oil level is a bit of a bother, I tend not to. Any of you more ambitious types notice any drop in the level? | ||

A guy I know with an X1 did the same thing...then had a bad valve guide seal and roached his motor when the oil went away. Do yourself a favor and check it on a regular basis. | ||

While the cold check isnt he best way to do it, it will give you an indicaiton if you are low and is pretty easy to do | ||

Every bike is different.....check your oil. | ||

rebuilding a motor is a bit of a bother too... and alot more expensive... | ||

1st 1,000 miles I was definitely burning oil. Since then, it has tapered off. At 3,500 miles I am burning little to no oil. | ||

Mine sounded louder and was running kinda hard. I was a quart low. At about 2500 miles |
