This is a well written and amusing account of one man's quest for a Motus.

3/4 quart of oil consumed in ~3K miles after 600 mi break-in service...did the MST finally get rings sealed???...I like Honda(or any bike) to not consume oil after break-in...I like seeing oil at FULL line on sightglass...& checking sightglass mostly out of habit & not of necessity...BUT...if I found a spare 32K $ in a shoebox in closet...

Yea, that's a lot of oil consumption. My ST only used a couple ounces of oil in 4,000 miles when it had 100,000 miles on it.
