hi
Looking for bit of advice.
I have a 2013 RT that has about 16k on the clock the last 7k are on my watch. Love the bike but the issue I'm having is that the bike seems to burn oil, aways has. No leaks and no visible oil spray out of the muffler.
At the 12,000 mile service I was told that it's normal for the rings to be still seating and that the oil topping off would slow down. It didn't.
At about 15k I was advised by Beamer Boneyard to do an oil change and use conventional oil MOLY AE20W-50 for until the next change. Still needs to be topped off at 16k.
Today I did about 350 miles and about 200 in the oil light came on, then it went off and at about 250 it came on and stayed on. I looked at the glass and did not see any oil. I put about 8-10oz in, the light went out and I finished the day.
It's not a huge issue to top it off but I was wondering if this is a common issue for this bike?
Thanks in advance
