but with that said, if all the bikes are using oil. my guess would be its either something designed wrong, like valve guides that let to much oil by, low tension oil rings that are a little to low tension in the search for every last HP. cyl plating causing the rings not to seal right, or some sort of crank case vents, either sucking oil out, or not baffled well enough.

not much you can do about any of it.
