I have a 2004 Honda foreman 500 4x4 and it burns oil BAD, when you give it full throttle it blows out black smoke for a couple seconds then it stops (Kinda like its rollin coal) and the oil level is going down kinda fast. PLEASE HELP

Black smoke is fuel. Are you sure the carb is not flooding the motor?

Compression test will tell the story. Pull the spark plug and trun it over to blow out any gas/oil and do a compression test.
