How much oil are you using, as the YB does use oil, the handbook quotes upto 1 litre every 690 miles! Also what grade oil are you using?
Does smell quite petrolley, especcially if i drive with the window open... could possibly be rich as hell....

i'm using about a litre every 600/700 miles, i thought the handbook quoted 1ltr every 1000 miles (haven't got an owners handbook)... so that could be a good sign!!

I'm using Valvoline 20/50 Race something....
