depends on the type of ticking.

check your oil to make sure you dont have water in it.

as long as its ticking and not tocking.

Hah, I dont know what kind of condition your motor is in, but oil comes out golden brown when it is good. Black means you need to change it...

people, there are all difrent kinds, i use spectro 4 or sumthin like that made for motercycle/atv and it looks just like honey when it comes out the botle the only way i can think of to tell if u have water in it is if it seems milky

I have no idea what you just said in that sentence.

I also use golden spectro 4.

If you are trying to say "when you put in the oil and the color is golden brown,once the bike is started the oil turns black. Even on newer models."

Sure, thats true, if you dont change the oil filter or flush out the engine with oil. I usually put in a quart of oil and start the engine for 20 seconds to let it get out the old and in with the new. That way, my oil comes out GOLDEN BROWN when I check the dipstick.

Mine looks golden Brown when I check the Dipstick too, just when all the oil is flowing out in a big mess it looks closer to black than golden brown..... I use Motul though...
