Timebandit asked about '09 oil level readings on another thread (about 2010 levels) on stands. Here's the deal. I'm using the T-Rex stands (good ones and great $$), on the rear only with the center of axle at 14 3/8 inches the level (cold) is right to the bottom line (low) on the dipstick. With the front stand also, and the bike looks pretty close to level but a bit higher towards front, center axle heights are 15 1/4 front and now 14 1/4 rear the level is half-way between full and over-full. (I like it there) On its wheels and held upright it's one line below the full mark. On the kickstand there's no oil on the stick. So there is a notable shift in readings level to just rear stand.. FYI. (Message edited by duphuckincati on May 30, 2012) (Message edited by duphuckincati on May 30, 2012) | ||

Duphuckincati ~ I use a roll-on front wheel chock with the rear tire on a piece of 1/2" cement board. THX Duphuckincati, I'll have to measure the axles to see how it really works. |
