So when I first picked up my brick, I notice oil, thinking its front seals, I ask anyway, how do you check the oil? He says he didn't know, but there's plenty in it. :falldown:
well I finally get around to changing it, my catch pan is almost full and it isn't slowing down! I manage the drain plug just in the nick of time, get a second regular oil drain pan and fill it over 1/2 way, WTH!? I haven't measured it but probably 7-8 qts. there was a little oil on the valve cover by the spark plugs, and it did smoke, but only a minute or 2 when it was started (I have only idled it) but no telling what he did :riding:. Although he thought the fuel filter was stopped up, he said it couldn't be ridden more that a mile or so, before it started sputtering out. Am I in for a major repair, or is there a chance I may be okay? Bike only has 26K miles
