I took my Hilltopper for a 5 mile ride today and when I drove home and parked the bike, I noticed that the engine breather is blowing more than what I would consider is normal.
Checking the oil level, the dip stick shows it has dropped down to the 1/2 full level.
The breather is intact and the filter is like new.
Since the engine was opened, I wanted to make sure the engine got well lubes. I'm running 5W30 oil for that reason.
Can the thinner oil be a cause of the oil leak?
The oil is clean and clear on the dip stick.
The oil that is blown out is black.
Any idea why the engine is blowing out so much oil?
