So I took the bike to dealer to do the 600 mile break in oil change. The dealer guaranties the oil change was done to spec. (All good)
Then, I went to change the Oil at the 5000 mile mark and there was no oil in the sight glass. My first thought was they didn't do the oil change correctly. I bought the extended warranty and wasn't about to give the dealer a reason to void it. So I took the bike as is to the dealer a they documented that the motor has consumed 1 Qt in 5000 miles. I told the dealer that I have never heard of a Honda leaking like a Harley. His comment was"Honda factory allows 1qt. per 5000 miles for burn off" I though he was pulling my leg since it was April fools day.
Has anybody has a problem with your bike burning oil?
