Hi,
I bought my 2006 1150GSA just under a year ago and in 12,000km (7500 miles) it has used 4 litres of oil. I know these bikes use a bit but this seems excessive. I park the bike on centre stand as much as possible which I heard helps to prevent burning oil off each time you start it.
The bike runs fine apart from there is engine vibration/rattle if you slowly accelerate in 1,2 & 3rd gear from 4000rpm upwards but this is probably normal for this type of engine??
Would appreciate any constructive thoughts?
