I haven't been keeping up, so forgive me if this has been suggested. Anyone thought about mounting a low oil light? Just turn on the switch, get on, straighten her up to riding position. You could have a red light for low or a green light for go. Or both. Shocked

How would you do that,........better yet, why ?

I think checking the site glass on the SS, is even easier than a dipstick.

Ok, I'll bite.    How do the stick and the brick come together to help make vertical oil level checking easier?






   .......  ya take this stick, see, and you cram the stick tight into the middle hole of the brick --

the stick is about a quarter inch it sets on top of the brick kickstand then makes it vertical.  just got to be carefull not to knock it off balance
