Note
An accurate indication of the level of oil
in the engine is only shown when the
engine is cold and the motorcycle is on
the side stand.
This method of checking the engine oil is
especially important to make sure the oil
volume is distributed correctly because
this model has a dry sump engine.
Failure to follow this method will result
in an inaccurate indication of oil in the
engine.
To inspect the engine oil level:
• Make sure the engine is cold.
• Start the engine and run at idle for
60 - 90 seconds.
Note
Do not operate the throttle while
the engine is at idle. This will give an
inaccurate oil level on the engine oil
dipstick.
• Stop the engine, then wait for at
least three minutes to allow the oil
to settle.
• Turn the oil filler cap anticlockwise
and remove it.

1. Oil filler cap
• Remove the oil dipstick from the oil
filler tube, wipe the dipstick clean
and refit into the oil filler tube,
making sure to push the engine oil
dipstick fully in.
• Remove the engine oil dipstick.
• The engine contains a sufficient
amount of oil if the oil level
is between the minimum and
maximum marks on the engine oil
dipstick.

3. Minimum limit
• If the level is near or below
the minimum mark, add the
recommended engine oil, a little at
a time, up to the maximum mark on
the engine oil dipstick.
Note
Make sure no foreign matter or
contamination enters the engine
during an engine oil change or top up.
Contamination entering the engine may
lead to engine damage.
• Once the correct level is reached,
fit the engine oil dipstick and the oil
filler cap.
