I just bought a 2008 BF750 and it is burning oil. Dealer told me to stop cat walking with it as the oil rushes to the back of the crank where the vent is, then it makes its way into the breather box. From here it gets into the throttle bodies and gets burnt. Any one here of this before? I was also told to switch form Kawi oil to 100% Synthetic. Thanks

No I have an 08 and I drive it like I stole it and have not had this problem. But at the first oil change I put Syn Oil in it

your dealer is right and also as with previous year brutes, don't fill the oil to the top of the fill line on the dipstick, go about half way
