checking oil

[fritz]

The manual is not very clear on how to check oil using dip stick.
Photos show removing foot plate but not how or which one (4).
I don't want to start prying on them. Help!

Web Bike World has a good description.
BMW Scooter Oil and Filter Change - webBikeWorld

And "yellasei" put a good tutorial in the DIY section of this forum.

Did you read the section on using your oil level indicator on your instrument cluster?

If the directions in the manual are vague to you, I suggest you find someone with mechanical experience to help you. A mistake in checking your oil could prove expensive.

Hey Fritz,

Driver side. You don't really have do too much prying; can be done by hand. One word...make sure the cap is threaded correctly and secure. Welcome aboard by the way.
