V50 Monza Dipstick + Oil Filter Question

Hello all,

I have just bought a Monza and was giving it a service this weekend. Pulled the Dipstick -which is also a thermometer - and there are no MAX / MIN marks. See Pic.

Can anybody help me out here with some measurements?



Also while retting the Oil Filter, the small Sump plate (E in the pic) looks like it fits in almost any direction, i take it that this is not critical?

thanks for the help.

Chris

I suppose the stick is equal to the later 750 Breva, maybe with the exception that the V50 will take 2 liters sharp.
Here's a pic of my dipstick, with the correction made for the 1,8 liter content. The 2-liter mark would be at the 9 cm mark.



Hope it'll help.

The sump plate will fit in any direction. The two finns will easily be broken. I also suppose the thought was that the plate finns should align with the sump finns, but that really cannot be critical.
 
Thats GREAT, thank you.

Checked the oil, thought there was none in it at first, but its still Clear/honey coloured after 300km of riding. So it must be VERY clean in there. Oil level was at MAX.

Despite being over 30 years old i am amazed at how nice the little MONZA is to ride. Sure the gearbox is a bit clunky (but still better than some BMW Boxers i have riden) and the Switchgear is a little ... well plasticy. But on the whole, a great little bike.

This one might be a keeper!!!
