When checking the oil level ..shall the engine be running
No...... engine should be warmed up to 4 bars on the guage.turned off and left for a few mins then check the sight tube

may i direct you to the downloadable manual if you do not have a hard copy to hand

Remember that if the engine is run at idle, bike on sidestand, till the 4 bars show it's the water temperature that's shown on the gauge not engine oil temperature.

I find it more accurate to check the oil after a ride, of course with the engine off and settled for 20 seconds.
