Default 04 Grizzly oil consumption

I have a 2004 Grizzly which continues to use oil. I have to add oil about every 300 - 400 Kms. No sign of oil burn or leakage. Anyone else experiencing oil consumption with their Grizzly? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

bring it back to your dealer asap. this is not common and is very likely an internal problem that should be repaired under warranty

The rings probably didn't seat properly when breaking it in. Some people believe that if a engine isn't smoking that it does not burn oil. Not the case I've seen engine that looked like they are running fine and were using oil. The culprit is usually a glazed cylinder and the ring are not sealing properly. I agree with rackman take it back to your dealer asap and get the problem rectified asap.
