might be running lean. check the air boot.if you're running to lean for too long you can kiss a motor good bye.

My guess is you are lean, and it has done some real damage. If half your oil is gone in half an hour, you have some real problems.

Need more info

is the oil cooler clean?

what oil are you using?

How many hours on the motor?

what type of riding?

WHat did you change when this started?

How is the power? Same as normal? Less ? More?

What jets are you running?

Any smoke?

Answer this stuff and someone on here can help I'm sure.
