NOTE
Make sure that the motorcycle during oil-
level checks stands level in all respects.
Even the slightest inclination towards the
side will produce measurement errors.
-
With the engine stopped, read off the oil
level from the sight glass (2) on the lower
right of the crankcase.
-
The oil level must be between the mini-
mum and maximum marks.
If required, replenish the engine oil SAE
15W/40 via the oil-filler opening of the oil
filler cap (3).
CAUTION
Do not use additives. Since the oil
also serves to lubricate the clutch,
do not use car engine oils supple-
mented with friction modifiers (such
energy-conserving oils can lead to the
clutch slipping). Use a suitable, light
engine oil for motorcycles, such as
Motorex SAE 15W/40 mineral oil API (SF
or higher).
- If required, replenish the engine oil (for
classification and viscosity, see the table)
via the oil-filler opening up to the maxi-
mum level marking using a funnel.
Recommended grade:
Per API: SG or higher or also with additional
release status: ACEA A3/96 (CCMC G5).

Recommended viscosity:
Viscosity depends on the outside tem-
perature. For short while, the temperature
may exceed or fall short of the limits of the
SAE grades.
The recommended viscosity grade SAE
15W/40 covers the ambient temperature
range -15 °C to +40 °C and therefore rep
-
resents the optimum for our latitudes.
