Valve stem seal replacement

[mammut89]

Hey guys

so my kat with 63 000km on it has been starting to use a whole lot of oil lately. for every 3000km it drinks 1 liter of oil. There arent any leaks or anything , it being burned in the combustion chamber unfortunately.

I only see a little black smoke when its cold and then it goes away but its definately burning the oil when its hot too.

So ive decided to change the valve stem seals and see if it helps.

any suggestions or thoughts ?

If your in that far, check the rings.

I wasnt planning on taking the head off. I was thinking if it comes to that I will just live with it till I sell the bike

That's what I thought, new cylinder and pistons later.
