hunter 1500 Posted June 25, 2019 Share #1 Posted June 25, 2019 I the manual it says to check the oil in the reservoir with the dipstick. Mine only has a cap. Any idea how you would check your oil level on these bikes? Is there an dipstick available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible the dipstick came out of the cap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted June 25, 2019 Share #3 Posted June 25, 2019 There is a dipstick. You open the left saddlebag and it is just behind the lid on the front side. You remove it, check the oil in the tank, and put it back when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant get a wratchet on them. Gear rench worked though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted June 25, 2019 Share #5 Posted June 25, 2019 Great. Does that mean that you found the dipstick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonK Posted July 2, 2019 Share #7 Posted July 2, 2019 -- One would presume he found the first cap was the reservoir cap. -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
