On it's two wheels standing straight up, or on the centerstand, the oil will show up in the window depending on how much oil is in there. Proper procedure is to put bike on level ground on centerstand. Warm up engine for 2 to 3 mins. Turn off for 3-5 mins and then observe level in window. OIl should be between upper and lower lines on crankcase
Sounds like mine is perfect then, thank you for the info. I tend to worry about these little things too much sometimes haha. Part of the reason I thought it might have been low is because my receipt only listed 3.5 qts being used. The other two times I've had it changed it listed 4 qts. I'm guessing it's not the exact amount put in the bike but rather the way they enter it into the system for billing.
I need to start doing it myself again just so I know it's done correctly but living in an apartment makes that difficult.
