It's not that they burn through oil fast, but that the capacity of their oil sump is small and normal usage will go through it.  They run them sloppier than an automotive four stroke.   We ran a bunch of honda's for 20-30 hours at a time during the storms of 16-17...

Aren't all Honda generators four stroke?  Why would they burn through the oil that fast?

    There are fuel feeder tank conversion kits pretty reasonably

    will let you feed that Honda from the external tank.   The issue
    is then
    the runtime of the honda, which will run through the oil before it
    runs
    through the fuel.
