gear oil level 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
How critical is this? My gut feeling says just pull the fill cap and the check screw and then just start fillint it up until it starts to run out of the check screw hole.. My bike is lowered a couple of inches in the back so I would probably end up with a little more oil than normal..

It's not.

Just make sure you have about 0.42 US qt .... give or take a qt

If your oil container has a window with graduations on the side then add 0.5 qt. You can also pre-measure out .5 qt and add that to the case
