Whats up with that... my bike goes like a raped ape and doesnt burn oil.

 

Overfilled?

 

Either too much oil.

It's building pressure due to a blocked/clogged up oil breather.

Or simply the rubber around the dipstick had softened and doesn't seal tight enough.

 

If it doesn't puke oil with the dip stick popping out, I would suspect the clogged oil breather....

 

Yep you've got a breather problem.

 

If they dont fit tite they will come out. The HD temp gauge ones really fit like crap.
If it's loose, go to an auto parts store and find an"O" ring that will make it fit tite.

 

After looking at it, I think this is it.. its really loose.. an O ring is a fantasic cheap *** idea.. thanks guys.

 

let us know if that fixed your problem

 

The same happens to mine.. i have the HD temp gauge.. I have to hold it each time I start the bike... LOL..

I had the same problem with my Shovelhead when the rubber shrank up and caused the dipstick to get loose in the oil tank. Here's how I fixed it. I cut a short piece of copper water line and pushed it up inside the rubber stopper. It now fits tightly in the tank and doesn't pop out when starting the bike. Not sure if the stopper is the same size on your bike or not, but it may be worth looking into. Cheap and easy fix.
