i dont think its burning oil, ive had it a few months and i think its high on the dip stick, too much oil is anything and it doesnt seem to have moved

The amount you will loose will be very little,
It will take a long time before you see oil level drop.
As neo siad if you can live with it leave it.

If you do it yourself it's a head gasket and a set of valveguide seals,
If you put it in a dealers it will cost you a fortune.

What about doing an engine flush and tank of redex with some fresh oil then putting some of this in?

Youll be cheaper buying a new engine.. easily run a couple of hundred quid to do the job.

Clean the valve stems off a bit for now and see how runs, give it a good ride for a couple of months at least and make sure nothing else breaks or that you dont like the bike / want something better before ploughing any more money onto it..

Okay, ill keep my eyes peeled, thats going to mean a collector box as well, i know it will fall apart when i disturb it, ive wanted a VFR400 since i was 16 when i started road riding (im now 25), however how i know about them i would preffer an NC30 since you can get parts for them more readily!
