No dip stick? (xrs900) (lemmy.world)

Just got a 24 xrs900. I wanted to check the oil, but there was no dip stick? Is there not supposed to be one or is mine missing?

Edit: Just checked the manual and the cap is like that and tells me where the window is. Now I feel a bit silly for not thinking about just reading it. I just sort of blanked when I saw there was no dip stick. Thank you for your quick replies tho :)

Look for a sight glass. Usually nearby. Stand the bike upright and check the level that way. Consult the owners manual to know if you should check when cold, running, etc.
