If that was original oil in bike, engine wasn't broken in yet and rings not fully sealing. So would burn oil at faster rate than normal. Sounds terminal, probably needs new engine.

Best deal is to buy one of those insurance bikes that's been totaled and transfer engine over. Couple of people in my race group bought those dirt cheap. Had trashed bodywork and all, but you'd replace then with track fairings for racing anyway.

Keep eye on gauges! Overheating or any kind of red light means pull over immediately and figure out what's wrong. Fix it before continuing.

Yeah check oil & chain before every ride. I oil chain every other tank, ~500 miles.
