Engine oil

Checking engine oil level
The oil level varies with
the temperature of the
oil. The higher the temperature,
the higher the level of oil in the
sump. Checking the oil level with
the engine cold or after a short
trip leads to misinterpretations of
the oil fill quantity.
To ensure that the display of the
engine oil level is correct, only
check the oil level with the en-
gine at operating temperature.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and hold motorcycle at op-
erating temperature vertically.
Let the engine run in neutral
for one minute.
Switch off ignition.
Read the oil level in the dis-
play 1.
