I was wandering how much oil everybody uses. Mine has used oil since it was new, Even after a rebuild it still uses oil.

I check mine before every ride and I MAYBE add a couple ounces every 3 desert trips. Not much.

Ditto. I might have to add a couple of ounces (say 10) or so every couple of trips. Usually I wind up changing the oil before I need to add any though. If you want to look at it another way, I might add about 6 to 10 oz. every 200 miles or so, but again when I get to 200 or 300 miles I will change the oil which translates to two or three trips.
