On my 83 1100E always has a golden look to it and appears over full all the time. When I drain it still shows the same thing with no oil apparently draining. Yet I have the correct amount in it. No dipstick of course but if I stick a wire all the way in I get maybe 1/8" of oil on it. Any ideas?

I think what you are seeing is the inside of the window and the metal behind going yellow with age.
If an opportunity presented you could try cleaning it up.
I need bright sunlight or a good LED torch to see what's going on in there.97 R1100R

Take off cover and clean the glass with Qtips through the slots. I use Seafoam for cleaning them. Have a new gasket on hand before doing it.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.Comment

Chuck posted a solution and since he already had a gasket he was done an hour & a half later.Comment
