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.
Oil can collect in the sump
if the motorcycle is out of
use for an extended period of
time; this oil has to be pumped
into the oil tank before the level
is read. The engine oil must be
at operating temperature to do
this. Checking the oil level with
the engine cold or after no more
than a short ride will lead to misinterpretation;
this in turn, means
that the engine will be operated
with the incorrect quantity of oil.
In order to ensure that the engine
oil level is read correctly,
check the oil level only after a
lengthy trip.
Make sure the engine is at operating
temperature and hold
the motorcycle upright.
with OA Centre stand:
Check that the engine is at operating
temperature, make sure
the ground is level and firm
and place the motorcycle on its
centre stand.
Allow the engine to idle for one
minute.
