My first oil change. As you can see the oil was really dark. I was shocked when I held the bike straight up I could see a bit of oil in the window but it was hard to tell if it was low. as you can see in photo #2 the bike is on its stand and I can see the fresh oil. Judging by how much oil I added before I saw it in the window I would say I was .4 quarts low. I was unaware that I should be able to see the oil even when it was on it kick stand. I road aver 200 miles like that. It goes to show what a noob I still am when it comes to motorcycle maintenance. I will agree that it almost feels like I am riding a different bike, its' so much smoother now the clutch and the ride. Thanks you very much for this thread!
