    Changed my primary case cover today from black to chrome and was woundering about the oil level.The service manual has 0.95L wet or 1.18L dry was going to go with the wet but when i pulled the cover off there was still abit of oil caught in the primary cover and i didn't want to go with the dry fill (1.18L) because i know there would still be oil in the clutch, chain, cogs. So I aimed for some where in between and put in 1.02L thats all the oil i had left in the shed. Will this be ok? Not enough? To much? or just wright?

    Should be OK, but if ya wanna be sure, simply drain it again into a clean container and refill with the wet 0.95 L amount.

    There's a device called the "scavenger" that apparently drains ALL the old oil out...

    No worries thanks for that I think I will just leave it how it is. Have taken it for a ride and there was no clutch issues that was the main thing I was worried about because the chain was going to have enough oil. The level looked to be slightly above what's in your picture Hilly.
