I just bought my '99 RR with 18,5K miles.The bike is in really good condition.
The previous owner had it for 5 years and put only 4000 miles on it.(most of it in a first year)
I dont know how old is the oil in it.(Im going to change it soon as i can)
I checked the oil level before i take it for a ride:it was about half.
I rode about 20 miles.
Next day i check the level again,and then I noticed that is on a MIN level.
I cant imagine that a Honda can eat so many oil at only 20 miles!
The bike always on the rear stand when i chek the level.
Doesnt come smoke from the exhaust.
What do you think about that?
And sorry for my English

I would suggest checking the level off of the stand balanced because the rear is raised like 3" when on the stand, and in the exact same spot every time.
Good luck!
