Engine Oil

So half way in the sight glass is good?

I usually fill mine to the upper line. Check and verify the level using the dip stick because as I mentioned earlier, the window isn't always accurate. Also make sure the bike is on level ground.

Those long dome nuts are part of the fastener pattern that holds the crankcase halves together. Looks like you may need an impact wrench to get those drain plugs out. I have an old electric Black & Decker one that works really well .....

What are these nuts for

Engine case assembly. They are dome nuts with copper washers to prevent an oil leak.

Thank you, the dipstick is halfway so should be good, I'll tack it on a short ride and recheck but thank you for your input
