Agreed, the window is nice if you can still see through it.

The factory Suzuki method for checking the oil includes...
Engine cold with bike on centerstand (flat pavement)
Run engine for about 1 min., then shut down
Wait one min. then check oil without screwing in the dipstick.
Oil expands when hot, so the level will be incorrect if you check with the engine hot.Ed
To measure is to know.

Just a thought here. Those of us who are luckily enough to have a clear oil check window, if we were to find us a dip stick we could use at some time when the window becomes clouded. You know, set the bike on the center stand, cold or warm oil, take the dip stick and mark it where it coincides with the F and L marks on the case. Then when the window does cloud over you have a dip stick marked and can still check your oil with out guessing or be in a rush to replace the window.sigpicMrBill Been a GSR member on and off since April 2002

Or you could clean the window. Keep clean oil in it and it will never cloud up.Comment

That means taking off the cover. And you know there some who won't do that until there is a clutch problem.Originally posted by tkent02 View PostsigpicMrBill Been a GSR member on and off since April 2002
