Default DS using lots of oil

Hey guys i was just wondering what u thought about this i have a 2004 ds650 and everytime i go to check the oil which is about every ride now...... it is low. I dont no how bad the ds650 is on oil but i had a 400ex before this and the oil was never low and never used any oil to speak of and this thing uses oil like it does gas........ does this mean my engine is going?

I put 4-Qts in mine every oil change and it is never low. I have an '04 and I have changed the oil twice so far and it has been good both times. Are you sure that there isn't a leak somewhere? Maybe it is burning up so fast that it doesn't show. Other than that I don't have any ideas but I'm sure somone else here knows A LOT more about oil than me. Good Luck!!!
