How to Read a Motorcycle Oil Dipstick?
1 Answers
To check the oil level using the dipstick, insert it and then remove it to inspect—do not screw it in fully before removing. The oil level should be between the upper and lower marks. Below is a detailed explanation of what each marking on the dipstick indicates: 1. Zone A: If the oil is in Zone A, the oil level is sufficient, and no additional oil is needed. 2. Zone B: If the oil is in Zone B, the oil level is moderate. You may choose to add oil or leave it as is for the time being. 3. Zone C: If the oil is in Zone C, the oil level is below the minimum mark, and oil must be added immediately to prevent damage to the engine.
