hi guys, just a quick update... I changed the oil, to my relief the oil light wasn't on when i started her up again or for the whole journey back from where I was storing it while on holiday. However on my first run to work it came on...
strange...
I checked the optical level and it was fine, maybe a bit too much oil in. Which brings me to a question, does the oil level light come on if its too full?
I've suspected that the engine is using a bit of oil for a while, not a massive amount but a little bit, anyway, I've been riding it for a week and a half now, and on friday last week the light went out, still looks like the same level of oil is in it from the optic but if the light does come on for too much oil and the engine has burned just a little bit of oil it might have burned enough to bring it back under the 'max' level (if there is such a thing)
Cheers for your help as always.
