How to check your engine oil
- Start the engine & leave the bike running for 5 minutes to warm up the oil.
- Switch off the bike and leave for 15 minutes to allow the oil to settle.
- Ensure your bike is parked on a level surface & stood up straight.
- Compare the oil level in the sight glass to your manufacturer´s recommendation. This should be somewhere between the min/max mark.
- If the oil is between the min/max line you are good to go. If it’s too low, you must top up the oil & fill to the desired level.
- To find the correct oil for your bike, use our product selector at silkolene.com.
