Covered windows don't kill bikes. A lot of us have covered windows.

Funny you should say that as I'm a) shopping for an action cam b) being hassled for porn by spaceman, and c) under close scrutiny from ferret for being perverted.

On top of that I usually find something else to do for an hour or so while it drains. At the last change, I filled with 1 gallon and it came out just below the upper fill line in the window.
I'm a bit paranoid about overfilling. On a few occasions over the years, I've miscounted and added an extra quart. This was soon followed by leaking gaskets (and oil in the airbox).
Let me guess... wenching?
Bwaaaahaahaa!

You guys kill me
When I last changed my oil I put 4 qts. in, it filled the sight glass. After approximately 2000 miles, I checked it yesterday and I am now at the top line. I think your good, a couple ounces over full is not going to hurt you. Ride on

I have a covered wagon. I'm going to take it west to Oklahoma and get in on the free homesteading just as soon as I can afford two ox and a goat.

I think he's telling us how rich he is: a convertible Mini, a CB1100 and a covered wagon with oxen and goats on the way.
