Frequently check your oil level kids!
Noticed quite alot of oil on the underside of my bike & no oil in the window (breather hose disconnected from airbox - which has since been reconnected).
Instead of topping up it was due an oil change, so did an oil and filter change and got all of 1700ml out!  I'm not entirely sure how the bike was still running! |

Re: Frequently check your oil level kids!
At least you spotted it when you did.
Could have been very expensive otherwise

Thought full was only 2300ml, 600ml short isnt too bad. You must have noticed quite early
 congrats.

Re: Frequently check your oil level kids!
Full is 2700 (incl oil filter) or 2500 without filter change.

Re: Frequently check your oil level kids!
Ah fair enough so you were a good litre short. Doesn't take long to come out though once you have a substantial leak.
All the best with the fix
