oil sight glass almost impossible to gauge

[midden]

Wow some one swallowed a rather large sarcasm pill today, or was it just a clever dick?


The reason I posted and why Fazersharp suggested putting on sidestand was because I couldn't see a level and therefore didn't know if that was oil behind the glass or just the colour of the glass. A simple obvious suggestion and not one requiring a rocket scientists degree. Thankfully.


By putting on centre stand I was able to see an empty chamber without first dumping oil and now know what I should be seeing on centre stand after engine running.
Possibly due to having tinkered with cars and m/bikes, including the whole complete strip down and rebuild in living room and bathroom did I think to actually think of checking level on sidestand.  It's just sometimes good to take a thing apart to see how it works.




First photo, look to the right of the window, can you see the braille like dots that you can't see?
They look like dots, almost braille like...... 
Excellent suggestion. Again not Rocket science but I was looking for dots on/in the glass so was blind (excuse the pun) to the braille on the side. But hey as I've always said if we were all perfect it would take the attention away from the smug bastards


Thanks for all your help
