My bike drips about 3 to 4 drips of oil every night while parked in my garage. Probably about the same during the day at my office. I didn't get to ride this weekend and it dripped all weekend - I put a box under the drip and moved it every morning and night - always a new drip. Other then the little oil stains all over my garage floor it doesn't seem to make any difference on the bike. I change my oil every 2,500 miles and am at about 2,000 right now. When checking the oil level it looks good if not as full as the day I changed the oil.
Bike details: 1996 750 72,000 miles Burns a little oil on the left side - can't remember which cylinder has a little bit of compression drop but not much. I am now checking oil level about every 500 miles and it's holding. Is there anything else I should be doing? Is oil burning and dripping common for the amount of miles I have? What I really want is to avoid a rebuild as long as possible with as little damage to the engine as possible. Which are kind of opposite..... Thoughts?
