everytime i check my oil there is none in the thing. i read the manual and let it warm up and when i check the oil there is never any on the dipstick. i know there isnt a leak and the gasket isnt blown. so if anyone could give meany ideas please tell me.

um... did u check under your quad where u store it, any oil spots ? if not then ur burnin it up or not putting enough in when u changed it.

Make sure after u dump a bottle in you run it for about 10 second getting the oil sucked up around other engine parts, then put the rest in, so she's filled right up !

after going to the dunes and riding pretty hard, my bike will burn a little bit of oil, i think every bike does when its worked hard enough, so i always have some extra oil on hand to fill it up after a weekend. :D
