So, the 1TB owners manuals say 2L.Interesting, since there wasn't a change to the block or sump from the 2TB models...
The sump on the later v7 is deeper and holds that extra .2litre
Is Dofin's bike one that perhaps is to be measured with the dipstick unscrewed. If it is, then the level would be about right.He does not seem to mention just how he is measuring it. Also, the bike must be level. It will read overfull if it is not, as the filling hole is on the side that the sidestand is on, and the level appears to rise appreciably if measured while on the sidestand.
After all it's not like the oil level is really important in an air cooled bike :)
While most vehicle manufacturers seem to have grasped this idea the designers at Guzzi seem to have failed in their task. I tried to measure the oil in my V7 last night and with the dipstick not screwed in and the bike level I achieved a range of levels from full to nearly empty. The dipstick, when rested on the hole is able to sit at various angles all of which affect the measured oil level. Obviously too difficult to design a dipstick that sits neatly on top of the hole.
When you next change the oil and know you have 2l inCheck the level on the side stand with dipstick fully screwed in and mark the full level Problem solved 😎
maybe I'm being too melodramatic.
Sump aint over filled, oil levels has stayed the same over last about 1K miles and no oil in the air box, also I have been at higher RPMs +7K. Cant seem to find a red line in my User Book??? not marked on my tac.
