G'day Amanger.

When I first got my 02 - the book said it had a sight glass - sure enough it was not there - turns out they gave me an 01 book with my 02 bike..

Coming from a BMW background that had the sight glass, I always found that an easier option - but you get used to the screwing out, wiping, screwing in routine pretty well.

Fortunately, mine hardly uses any oil - but I still check about once a week.
Harry, you obviously never had a K1200Rs :-D You had to be like another Harry (Houdini) to even see the sightglass on them. I recall it was always a 'down on hands and knees' effort to check the oil.
