I too also have a Goldwing,and I was having that same problem. Believe it or not I used my car oil dip stick,to check my oil...it gave some indication how much oil was in there
I have a 1980 Honda GL1100i "Interstate".
The motor oil level is checked through a sight window in the right side of the case, a little bit forward of the rear brake pedal.
There are two lines molded into the case beside the sight glass. These are your upper and lower level indicators. You want your level to be about midway between those marks.
If you cannot see the oil level, you might have some oil "schmutz" on the inside of the window. You can clean this by turning the little screw in the middle of the sight glass, which turns a set of miniature wipers on the glass, cleaning it off. try putting the bike on the centerstand, starting the engine, let it idle. now look at the siteglass window for your oil level. should be halfway up the window with 3.7qts of oil.
yes and no, it has a glass indicator window but no dip stick
On the right side there is a chcek glass it is hard to see
3 1/2 quarts. There is a sight glass on the lower right side that shows the oil fullness.
There is no dipstick on this motorcycle. There is an inspection window called "a sight window" on the bike's right side when sitting on it, a bit forward of the rear brake pedal. There are two lines on the sight glass. They form the upper and lower oil level indicators. The oil should be at the upper or between the two levels. It happens that the oil level cannot be seen through this small window but it can be cleaned by turning a small screw located in the middle of the sight glass. This turns a small wiper blade that cleans the glass from the inside.
Have the bike on the center stand and look in the sight glass. Its on the foot brake side. Just wipe it and use a flash lite. Helps if the engine is running and have some one turn it off and you will see the oil settle.
There is no dipstick on this bike. Instead, there is a sightglass on the right side of the crankcase. You may have to use a flashlight to see the oil level through the sightglass. With the bike on the center stand, the oil level should be around the middle of the sight glass "window". Some people have made their own dipsticks to use in these bikes.
This model has a site glass. With the bike on the center stand, look on the right side, ( foot brake side ) you will see a small glass window. Clean the glass, and with a flash lite in hand, engine running, have someone turn the engine off. You will see the oil settle in the window and it must be on the line to be full. That's the best way.
there isn't one. check sight glass on left of bike near crankcase cover
There is no dipstick on the year & model mentioned. There is a oil level site glass which makes it very hard to check oil with only one person.
It depends on if you have a dipstick or a glass lense. My Grizzly has a glass lense at the base of the engine on the left hand side. I fill it about 3 quaters of the way and i use about 3 quarts of oil.
on my rmx 250 1999 there is clear glass on motor thats your oil level
To check the hydraulic fluid in an AGCO White 6065 tractor, locate the hydraulic reservoir, usually marked with a dipstick or a sight glass. If it has a dipstick, remove it, clean it, and reinsert it to check the fluid level against the marked indicators. If using a sight glass, simply observe the fluid level directly. Ensure the tractor is on a level surface for an accurate reading and check the fluid condition for any signs of contamination.
