Have just spent most of my working day reading the forums....not sure my boss would be too happy but it has thrown up another question....two in one day.

I have a 1998 DTR which has a seperate bottle for the 2 stroke so i don't have to premix. I filled it up and have only been out on the bike twice doing a total of about 40 miles, if that, and used about two thirds of the bottle.

Is This Right? Am i using too much oil and if so can it be checked/adjusted etc

Thanks all

:D

your using way to much oil there fella. bet its smoking like mad. i would be checking your pump asap to see how wrong its set.

folow the st piping down to the engine case it should go in behind a cover. open this up and have a look. should really explain itself once youve looked. ive never worked on a dtr but all the 2t's ove worked on have setups that work along the same lines.

Thanks gav2k, i'll take a look over the next few days and let you know how i get on!

You should be getting roughly 400 miles out of the 2-stroke bottle, so ive been told :). So i guess 40 miles and you went through so much is amazing, smokie bike.
