It got black that fast! blowby!....time for a new piston. Do a compresion check.

 

my bike doesnt even have 60 hrs on it could it be the clutch.

 

Your oil will always look dirty with a wet-clutch.

Is your clutch slipping?

I'm guessing you are probably fine and it is just the wet-clutch that is making it dirty. Normal.

 

got me scared for a minute beacuse my bike has about 50hrs and ive heard of people getting upto 1000hrs from these motors.

Nice hand. Haha, jk. Yeah, that looks pretty normal. What color was the oil at first? Just the normal light brownish? or red?

 

you need big hands to handle a big bike right lol, the oil was almost honey like but that was about three months ago but ive only used the bike 4 times in those three months.

i also checked the crank case breather and it was dry just a little water from washing it earlier.

 

Hahaha You know.. honey color is an excellent example of oil.

But yeah, you should be good. Maybe get another good ride or 2 out of that oil. Just as long as it doesn't feel watery, and it still feels pretty thick, then you're good to go.

 

Well i no when i had a ring gone on my piston my oil went black after one ride. Now with a PERFECT engine it never goes as black as it did before even with 4 months of riding. After a week of riding it still isnt BLACK.
