    Guys - have a 2003 Triumph Spring ST 955i with only 34,000 km that I really like but unfortunately it consumes a lot of engine oil, without any visible leak or blue smoke. My 2000 Daytona 955i consumes none. Has anybody had a similar issue and had the engine repaired? What was the outcome?

    Hello and welcome! I just purchased a ‘03 Tiger same engine with only 16K miles. No issue but I’ll follow closely just in case. Good luck.

    @Friedrich Speidel Welcome to the family. Strange one as they are usually so reliable. Do check the water just in case and make sure its the right oil. Sometimes altitude or high heat requires a heavier oils. Talk to your dealer. Do hit the upload a file button bottom right and show us the bikes.
