Based on some very compelling UOA's on this site, I made the decision to move to HDEO Dino's this past summer. Everything was awesome, the bike ran great and I had "near zero" oil consumption.
So for my winter fill, I pour in Rotella 5w40 a month ago. This past weekend, we had a nice day, so I rode the 300 mile round trip to watch my son's playoff football game. The ride included about 200 miles of 75mph interstate highway.
When I got home, the bike was down about a 1/4 or a 1/3 of a quart.
As I remember back, I also recollect that for my Amsoil run and my M1 15w50 run...the bike drank oil like a camel.
On the other hand, as stated above, with Delac 15w40....I get nearly zero consumption. This isn't a sudden thing, as I have noticed this behavior over the 24,000 miles on the bike.
What gives?
