1990 xt600 burning oil when started

After i ride my bike just a little bit and then it is parked for just a few hours it burns a lot of oil the next time it is started. I was wondering if anyone knew what would be the cause of this. it only has like 3000 miles on it. I think it might be a sticky valve or something because sometimes it burns more and sometimes but i am not sure. If anyone has ever ran into this or knows what might be the cause i would like to hear your opinion, thanks
