    Change the oil and filter and run it up to temp again without load. Inspect oil condition( If clear you are most likely fine) If cloudy reapeat one more time and hope for the best.

    Very common.
    Milky white or coffee color is from condensation.
    Certain times of the year when you have warm days and cold nights.
    You see it more in desert areas especially.

    Problem solved. Changed the oil and filter with some cheaper stuff, ran it for a bit, everything looked good, changed the oil with the good stuff.

    Thanks everybody for your help

    I've only had sex with betaraces bike. I wanted a hot Italian babe; so the 999 fit the bill.

    OP's bike has not been sexually assaulted by me.

    Normal. ....Normal is when you have just enough going on that you are not bored and depressed, and not so much going on that you have anxiety.

    Twisted ....Twisted is ok. BENT is another thing!!! Hahhahhahaha

    I saw some worrying looking swirls in my sight glass early this year. Fresh oil run only a little to circulate at the end of last season. Took it for a good ride and everthing looks fine. With your mileage, I doubt it's a head gasket.
