I'm not changing oil to save some money. I like to work on my bike (I like DIY) it's great way to familiarize with bike but this oil change, I read a lot about it and I get confused. This is my first dry sump engine bike.


That's what I thought but is it a litle weird to rev engine with no oil (I know there is litle oil left in, but)?



I know that now. When I bought this bike first thing I did pull out the dipstick, wipe it, put in WTF no oil on it. I read service manual and then I went for short ride- again no oil on dipstick. I pour in 0,2-0,3l of oil and now I don't know do I have too much oil in engine so I don't want to ride it until I change the oil (can't wait anymore-the sun is shining here).


Guys thank's again for your input. This weekend I'm changing my oil, and some other stuff. Untill then if someone have anything to point out please say it.
Dont ever run your engine with no oil in. I have cleared up my response above to say part refill your oil with say 2L of oil then run the engine and rev it 5 or 6 times before the final fill.
