[jrny426]

Hey all

my first post so be kind with the flames...

I found the manual somebody was cool enough to scan for a 2001 ,,I don't imagine the 2002 is much different my ? is I drained about a liter out of my bike and the manual says the capacity is 1.5 to 1.7 depending , I put 1.5 into mine ran it a bit and is waaaaay over on the dipstick.Is this normal am I in danger of blowing out a seal?

Thanx

Did you drain the frame, case, or both? It sounds like you only drained the case.

I know you will get some blowby if you overfill. Don't know about blowing seals.
