Consumer Description

THE 2008 CBR1000RR I PURCHASED AT THE BEGINNING OF 2012 WITH APPROX. 4,000 MILES ON IT BURNS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL. I HAVE PUT APPROX. 2,000 MILES ON IT AND HAVE HAD TO ADD 4 LITERS OF OIL . AT 7,000 RPM AND HIGHER IT BLOWS SMOKE OUT OF THE EXHAUST . FROM WHAT I'VE READ THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONGST THE 2008 AND 2009 MODELS. THE DEALERSHIPS HEAD MECHANIC SAID THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM{ADVENTURE MOTORSPORTS IN TWIN FALLS IDAHO}. *TR
