Singles / C15T gearbox oil quantity
« on: 13 June, 2021, 18:37:05 »
I have just changed the gear oil on my C15T.
I was expecting to put in half a pint, but the oil started running out of the level plug at approx 150mls - roughly quarter of a pint.
This seems like a piddling amount of gear oil (particularly in a bike not exactly renowned for hanging on to every drop of oil that is put into it!)
Any ideas on why it might take so little? The level/drain plug was fitted by the previous owner - does anyone know whether there are plugs that fit, but are set to a different level?
Cheers
