I have 97 Yamaha Vmax SX 700 tripple, i just bought the sled about 2 months ago. I've noticed that the sled use more oil than i think it should be.
After going for a 2 hour ride i am needing to fill the oil.
I have filled the oil resivoir about twice now ( Roughly 2L) and have only used about 20 bucks in Gas.
I was wondering if there is like a little switch or somethign so i can control how much oil is being mixed with the gas and where it is located?

thanks for the link captn.....
a 97 sx 700 you want 19-22MM on the oil pump spec(gap)
Do these checks in this order;
1st- set idle to 16- 1,7000 rpm's(@ operating temp)
2nd- set throttle end play to 2mm(adjustment for that is here )
3rd- set oil pump cable free play here and here to 19(richer)to 22(leaner)mm
then set choke anytime to 1.5mm
try 20 or 22 and see,where is it at now?????
