That is exactly the kind of info I needed! There is a bike near me that has been over on its left side, which promted the question. So basically, what you're telling me is that it would need it's head taking off before being run (it's certainly not been ridden since falling over as the left clip-on is bent) to make sure that there is no oil in the left chamber - or any chamber for that matter. That fact that the problem can present itself hundreds to a few thousands of miles later is worrying. I think I'll give that bike a bit of a wide berth actaully. Or perhaps haggle very hard, with good reason, and obtain it for spares or for cautiously putting right again.
