Ok, So I could be arsed to do the Welsh Rally, which involved quite a lot of riding at a quick-ish pace.. Now, to date I've not noticed any significant oil consumption, but before the Rally the level was about two inches above the line, but when I looked a day or so ago it wasn't even in the pipe - shock! I topped it up and it took about 300/400ml to get it back to where it was before.
Normal or fucked?
This may have a bearing on my other recent post.

Oil Level / Consumption
You don't get a warm-up lap for life...
Oil level has been a source of headfuck since I owned the bike....
Doing an oil change, the correct amount of oil fails to register in the tube,warm the bike up and nothing visible, add oil to bring it up to the minimum , fire it up again and below the minimum again, we are now over the 3.8l capacity .....
Walk away from the bike, next day oil is around the minimum level, day after its halfway between min/max, day after its near max,day after its over max....
If it's fucked then it will look like a Stroker and smell like a tractor on start up
