you could be loosing coolant through the head gasket it would go into your oil..
your oil would look like weak coffee..

It will look like milky foam in your oil if it is not in there run your bike for a while and place a mirror in the back of your exhaust to see if it is collecting condensation if it is you could have a blown head gasket .
