Kawasaki 650R 09 consuming a lot of oil?

You could end up going round and round in circles on this one.

 

Dealer overfills the coolant system.

Engine gets properly hot and blows out the excess coolant all over your foot.

You go back to the dealer.  They overfill the coolant system again.

And so forth.

 

Once the coolant system has blown out any excess coolant it is at the correct level.  My guess is there is nothing wrong with the coolant system.

Might be so. Had no issues going back. No weird noises nothing on the dashboard. Level seems fine between max and minimum. The color was purple/pink. Are there any other liquids that could or would spill in the region of 50-100 ml of that color?

I don't know what coolant Kawasaki specify but long life coolant is generally pink.

 

I use Toyota long life coolant, which is pink, in pretty much everything.  Cars, bikes and the tractor.

 

Never seen a purple automotive fluid in nearly fifty years working on cars or bikes.
