thats pretty much the question i have, because i have fixed the carbs (I think) and put a fuel shut off valve in the line so zero fuel is going in the carbs when sitting.
I changed the oil and filter, and put the level to the full line. Ran the bike for 100 miles and the oil was over the full line in the sight window. I drained the excess and checked it for gas smell and I did not smell anything but oil really and the oil seemed to be thick still and not runny like previously when i did have gas washing. So is this because oil is draining down from the oil cooler giving me a over full reading and i put too much oil in it intially? It is not overfull horribly, it's up to the top of the sight window and i can see the cutoff point. i'm stumped. The oil after 100 miles is the same color as when i put it in new.
