Keep an eye on your oil level. Using a thicker grade oil may help to some degree.

hope that helps

Seems strange that it's blowing oil out the back......usually any oil will burn off before it reaches the end and you'll have blueish smoke. Are you sure it's blowing oil and not dirty water or fuel?
If it IS blowing OIL, then you have a very fast leak for it to be enough quantity to not get burned off in the exhaust system.....
dry/wet compression test should tell you for sure though!My Member's Ride Thread
