The oil level in the sump should be below the water pump with the bike upright, but have a catch tray under there anyway, just in case...!

somone posted in a thread I wrote on the other day as when I took mine out a load of oil came out with it, to tilt the bike backwards so the oil can't come out if your unsure :-)
Or just drain it to be safe lol.

cheers. will just get the drain tray beneath it just in case. its stuck on the abba stand with no rear wheel on as its off for powdercoating, so no tilting, but a bit of praying maybe
