RE: How often are you adding oil?
I have about 3K on mine. Had to add a Qtr about 1 month after dealer did a change so thinking the dealer shorted me. Since the add I have not used any!

On top of mechanical condition of your bike,your riding habits can affect your oil consumption.I smack mine in the a$$ from time to time so I burn more than I would if I were riding like a geezer.[sm=gears.gif]

I've about 2100 and have not had to add any oil, I check it everytime I stop for gas(it's hot them). One oil change so far at 1000 miles. Will change to Redline 20w60 at the 3000 mile mark.

Should not use any oil between oil changes. I recommend checking regardless. Mine had the bad valve stem seals and used a qt every 1500 miles. Had them replaced under waranty, now it uses none. HD will tell you using some is OK, using none is OK IMO.
