Engine oil
 
Hi fellow orgs,

My oil shows full when standing upright when off, but shows low when upright ticking over is this right?

Cheers,
Ty

Re: Engine oil
 
Your manual and a search of the forum will show that oil should be measured with the engine off, and the bike upright.

When the engine's running some of the oil is being circulated round the engine so there's less sat in the bottom of it where the sight glass is.
