Ok , dumb question here,
How do we check the oil on our WR250 ? I know there is supposed to be a
sight glass somewhere on the left or right side of the bike but damned if we
can find it.
Thanks in advance,
Will

You should never operate an engine if you don't know how to check the oil
level.

Don't ask how I learned that.

Sight glasses are always in the clutch cover, which is on the right hand side
of most motorcycles. There is an oil filler cap in the clutch cover.

There is probably a sticker with the oil capacity in liters followed by the
ribbon symbol.

Thanks.The reason I asked is because I bought it used and it didn't have a
manual and would have consulted with that but.....
