Two issues with the bike. I have a 2001 that has been jetted per VArider's thread, yoshi slip on, and airbox mod. Except for those items the bike is stock with some minor cosmetic changes. I also performed the vaccum port crossover connecting port one to 4 and port 2 to 3. I disconnected the ais from port 4 to do this mod.
I just started to notice excess vibration coming from the bike. When I accelerate from 4 up to about 8000 rpms the bike rattles the front fairing and I can feel the vibration through my seat. The bike seems to run fine and I've performed a carb sync recently. It seems to vibrate more after the carb sync. I'm getting ready to retorque all my motor mounts but I was wondering if those front bushings are supposed to be see through? Is there a way to replace those bushings without replacing the whole $265 mount for the front? Or am I completly of about how that thing is connected.
Secondly I recently went on a long ride, about 250 mile, when I left my oil level was just above the site glass. When I got back it had dropped to the full dot. With the oil level here my oil light comes on in hard acceleration but the thing that bothers me is the other day I had it running for 5 minutes then I hopped on to go to work and within 5 minutes the light had come on. I didn't accelerate hard at all barely even cruising speed. Any diagnosis is greatly appreciated.
