Why does my KTM 350 EXC-F Motorcycle consume so much oil?
- RRobert BrownSep 8, 2025
High oil consumption in your KTM Motorcycle can be attributed to several factors. A bent engine vent hose can cause excessive oil usage, so ensure it's routed without bends or replace it if necessary. An engine oil level that's too high can also lead to increased consumption, so check the engine oil level. Using engine oil that is too thin (low viscosity) can also be a factor, so change the engine oil and oil filter, and clean the oil screen. Lastly, worn piston and cylinder can cause this issue, so measure the piston/cylinder mounting clearance.
