cyborg -- I couldn't agree with you more. That is the puzzle. All the posts will help me find out where all this oil is burning, but the lingering question is why didn't I seize up. I checked the dipstick after the oil change and it is spot on, no extra hidden oil.

With that kind of loss there is either oil all over the engine or in the belt case,,,or you're burning it,,,at that rate the plug would be fouled something fierce,,,,it would have hair like don king,,,you'd be driving a two wheeled mosquito fogger

cyborg - my friends have a sense of humor, but I'm considered a "master mechanic" in my circle because I venture to make engine repairs on my own scoot. I once changed my car battery and the neighborhood kids all gathered around because they had never seen under a car hood. Meanwhile, the scoot continues to ride as well as it ever has.
