Why is the oil overfilled after a dealer service?
#21
Had some warranty service done at the dealership two years ago. Rode the bike about 100 miles afterwards, then a few days later decided to adjust the clutchpack. Pulled the derby cover and couldn't see any primary fluid. Poured a whole quart into it, right up to the proper level. No leaks before or after. Dealership obviously failed to put any fluid back in the primary after reassembly. Never went back.

I wasn't aware of that, but I had drained and refilled it a few months before and have done it again twice since. With one quart in it (level on the lift) it just comes up to the bottom of the lip. You might be able to get another two ounces in it, but no more. On the jiffy stand, I could see how you could overfill it, but I have never filled it on the jiffy stand.
