Blow by the rings and or poor oil scavenging, assuming the oil level is right not over.

Make really sure your oil level is right before assuming the worst.  If it's over, even a little, it'll come out the A/C.  Some bikes "like" it 1/2 quart low.  Dealers have been known to overfill...I'm just sayin'...

I'd say that's good advice right there. :2vrolijk_21:
