Hi there!
I've a Bullet 500 Es from 2007 (5 speed). I bought a temperature oil gauge cap that I wanna fit, changing the original oil dipstick (mine it's the threaded one). But, here the problem. The oil temperature gauge it's shorter than the original, so I wrote the shop to tell that and they say to me that my previous oil cap isn't the right one but it's from an Electra 500 that have a longer dipstick.
This fact will look not so important, but it is. I run the bike checking the oil with a longer dipstick, so the level I read is not the right one. Is always under the minimum line of the shorter dipstick.
So...can someone tell me how long is the dipstick fitted in the Bullet 500 Es (I think is the same of the Sixty 5).
Mine is on the right
This is the Photo sent me from the shop
And another question...I think the italian manual is incorrect over some information maybe caused by an horrible translation. Here it's write the engine oil capacity is 1,5 L but some pages before, same Manual, was 1,5 Kg. I read from Snidal's Manual that the oil capacity is 2,25 L. I Need to do an oil change and with a possible wrong dipstick and wrong capacity I really dunno how much oil I must put...
P.s.: Like always, sorry for my english. I try to do my best!
