well if you seize your engine, you'll notice right away.  it kind of has an immediate effect, that of your bike breaking.  as for other minimal damage from not enough oil, or going to high in rpms, your engine might start picking up random unhealthy sounds, and you'll probably notice that right away too.

The GS motor is designed to go up to 10kRPM, no problem there. The engine drinks oil at an alarming rate at these speeds, though.

yeah don't worry about going up to 10k rpm, that's what the bike is made to do.  just stay out of the red, and keep your bike full of oil.

I brought my bike to a shop when I first started having problems. They told me that there was nothing wrong with my bike. All I needed was a rejet...

Go check out my post about vibrations. Somehow the pictures that I posted don't fall under "normal" or "okay" in my book.

I'm not saying that the tech was worthless. We are all human and he was right. I did need a rejet. However, that had nothing to do with the problems I was having. Just cause someone says there is nothing wrong doesn't neccicarily mean that nothing is wrong.


PS- i3randon12, could you type out a few more of your words when you post? Maybe its just me, but its kinda hard at times to read stuff when people type like that. I'm not trying to take a shot at you. It's just a request.

I heard the noise, then it would vibrate really bad above 5k (extra vibrations below 5k but not as much). There was also a  loud noise which I thought was coming from the camchain tensioner blade or guide. There was a small loss of power, but that wasn't the most pronounced symptom.

I'll be less nice than goat. I find folks who write like that a f$cking nuisance. I did reply helpfully this time, but you stand a fat chance of me ignoring your post if u typ l33+.
