Forgot to check the oil earlier and just checked it before going somewhere tonight. The dipstick didn't have any oil on it. Since that obviously wasn't good, Dad and I filled it up with some Magnatec (the only 10w/40 in the garage - what the manual reccomends). The dipstick was earning it's name by not giving me a good reading (one side had no oil, other had patches of oil, random shit like that) so Dad and I kept on adding more oil in. Still wasn't getting a good reading so we decided to leave it cause I had to run off. Go out, the bike was making a funny noise around the clutch area. It was a kinda buzzing-sloshing noise, don't know any better way to describe it. I came home thinking we had overfilled it, checked the dipstick, it was reading half way, but who really knows since it's been so unreliable. Dad believes it might be the magnatec mkaing the noise since it's meant to be 'sticky' but we didn't add that much in since it was only a top up. Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be?
My night is ruined now. This mightn't be a problem, but then I don't want it to seize on me for being complacent.
