Subject: Oil consumption and more questions


Hallo all of you,

my name is Gregor and since about 6 weeks I am in
the mailing list as a quiet reader so far. 
To present myself first: My name is Gregor Baer, I am 26
years old and I am german although I live and work here 
in Spain, Valencia (A realy good place to ride an @).

I bought my RD04 in January with 34000 Km and since this
time I have done 4000Km with it. I am really happy with it.
I enjoy  reading the mailing list and the home page very much
and I apreciate a lot the work that some of you are putting 
in these things. 

I have two questions:

1.) The first Weekend of may I went to the GP of Jerez
(Good fun!). In three days I did about 2000 Kms going about 
120-150 Km/h all the time. The Motorcicle used about 0,6l
of oil. ( I use Syntethic Oil Castrol GPS 15W50)
(Normally I would use mineral oil but I got the oil very 
cheap this time and so I decided to use it.)
Is this oil consumption OK or is it too much ?
If it is too much, what is wrong?
How many Km do you recomend between the oil changes?

2.)The Yellow Fuel reserve light doesnt work.
It must be the sensor, because lhe light works when I start the 
engine. How can I check the sensor?
How does the sensor work?

Thank you very much
Gregor
