Engine oil

Checking engine oil level
The engine can seize if the
oil level is low, and this can
lead to accidents.
Always make sure that the oil
level is correct.
The oil level varies with the
temperature of the oil. The
higher the temperature, the high-
er the level of oil in the sump.
Checking the oil level with the
engine cold or after a short trip
leads to misinterpretations and
therefore to incorrect oil fill quan-
tities.
To ensure that the display of the
engine oil level is correct, only
check the oil level after a longer
trip.
Make sure ground is level and
firm and park motorcycle at
operating temperature.
Wait five minutes after switch-
ing off the engine at operating
temperature.
Read off the oil level from the
display 1.
