Hello
IN TEST PHASE
Tired of having to take a flashlight every time to control my oil level :-\ :-\ :-\
So I installed an LED 12V strip with a switch ;) ;) ;)

That is a nice little feature. I have to use my phone flashlight everytime I look down there.
-
there's a window to check oil level?
just kidding Sig, nice job. 8)

I usually check my oil in the daylight!

Getting the bike level is tougher than seeing the level. 8)

When I had a C10 I only looked at it after the oil change. It never used any oil. Same with the C14. But a good idea with the light, though.

I agree- change oil, add 4.75 qts. Fuggetaboutit. Go 5,000 miles, repeat. Fuggetaboutit. Never had a Kawasaki use any oil no matter how many miles.

Just for shits and giggles, put the bike on the center stand when cold and start it looking into the oil window- and be amazed how long it takes for the oil to reappear and start circulating..
