Ahhhhh, Chris, I may be a little late with this (I was RIDING, all 
week-end), but, the old oil filter prolly had most of the rest of the oil 
you were looking for in it.  :]

Wait!  Are you saying you only had 1 & 3/4 of a quart TOTAL of used oil?? If 
so, then, no, not good.  Not good at all.  If no puddle's in the garage, 
then you are burning oil (rings), or getting blow-by into the air-box.  I 
would check the air-box first thing.
