MC21 dry clutch tranny oil

**Sun Jan 20, 2008 5:00 am » Post: #1 » Download Post**

Greetings all,

Is there anyway I can check the transmission fluid level in a dry clutch engine? I noticed there is no inspection window or bolt to remove.

So when topping it up do I fill as per the destructions and hope for the best?

TIA

Which needs to be checked when the bike is upright, not on the sidestand. It's integral to the oil cap, so it's not a long dipstick if you don't know what you're looking for.

ok done......all three engines in the shed have the mini dipstick on them.

The only problem now is that one engine is chockers, need to make sure it's only oil! Rolling Eyes

How mini is mini I think mine is broken, anyone know how much fluid a transmission takes...just had engine rebuilt so I think it is completely dry.

it's probably about 20mm long (just under an inch for you Rolling Eyes

) Click on Andy's link to see what it should look like.

I ended up using close to 700mL of oil and it appeared to be spot-on, that was from a completely dry gearbox.

How far up is the break? You'll be atleast able to measure the high level?

there's about half of one of those criscross marks left and thats it...but yes according to the digram I should still be able to tell when its topped off.
