Larry on oil consumption...

<<1 found a service bulletin on how to reroute the oil line for my year
bike.>>

In the last week I have put less than 100 miles on the bike and decided
to check the oil level today and find I am between 1/2 to 1 quart low.>>

Hey Larry,

I think you fixed the only problem you had -- routing the primary case
vent hose was a common problem on the 2000 models, hence the service
bulletin.  This was the oil you saw on the floor--btw, this oil does not
come out of your crankcase oil supply, its from the primary case.

As far as checking your oil, make sure there is some in the tank before
you start, but check the oil level with the scoot standing straight up
and the engine warmed up.  It is not uncommon to use a little oil for
the first 10k miles or so or if you are running extended periods down
the freeways at 90+ mph.

Ride on...
