I just went to check the oil level on my V7C (1500 km already) after a short (15 minutes) ride. Held it straight, unlocked the oil tap - dipstick and checjed after 5 minutes.
But, the dipstick does not resemble by any means what the manual depicts. There is not a MAX line, neither a MIN line.
Lookinh at it carefully and logically one can make out 2 zones : the red one and the yellow one as I have painted in the picture.
In which zone should the oil level be ? red one or yellow one ?
And another thing for that matter. On all my previous motorbikes (Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha) you should just rest the oil tap - dipstick on the "ridge" and not screw it in. V7 manual does not state what to do, so I just did what I always have done. I also enclose a picture of thi procedure. Is that correct ?
I guess Breva 750 owners can help here. It is the same bike after all :lol:
