You guys are all my heroes!
You've consoled me that my bike isn't going to explode any second now. I will keep an ear out and maybe drop the oil as a precaution.
I forgot to mention, since my bike was a year old when I got it but had only covered 104 miles, the dealership serviced it for me (supposedly) before I picked it up, so if it is overfilled it is their fault rather than the japs who made it.
I also doubt they put the prescribed 10-30W oil in as I envisage a bulk tank of 10-40W in the corner of the workshop and a mechanic who couldn't care less what oil he uses!
Maybe I'm getting cynical in my old age (early forties) lol.
