i have a 2001 raptor 660r. i noticed that it has been losing some oil, like a quart in 15 min! I checked the whole thing over for leaks or drips and i couldnt find anything at all. When i ride i also dont see any blue smoke what so ever when im driving it so i dont know where it could be going. the only time i notice a little bit of blue smoke is when it starts up cold. this only lasts for about 5 min then the smoke is gone. any ideas???

 

it seems turn burn the oil mostly when i punch it alot. it will go through a quart in like 15 min then i will add it and it seems to be fine. this happens quite a bit. any ideas?????

 

Wow, a quart in 15 min???? If it's blowing blue smoke, then thats a sign of buring oil, but I've never seen any machine burn that much oil that fast. Probably just time for a rebuild on the top end.

 

Calm down.....did you just change oil and the oil level go down upon startup? Normal.

 

this.

or check your air filter box... you might be in for a surprise.

 

yeah i checked over everything. and i did not change the oil in it yet. i checked the plug and its a light brown color with no signs of oil. i need to add some oil about every half hour and it seems to not be as bad but i still gotta add about 1/4 a quart each time. so i have no clue what to look for. and i looked for leaks and nothing seems to be leaking.

 

and there is no blue smoke, only upon startup then it goes away once its warm
