R 1200 GS FD oil change question

[jogo]

May be surprising or even disappointing, but I do not want to discuss the brand or specs of the oil to be used. )

My question comes here:
I just changed the FD-oil following basically the great manual provided by Jim von Baden. However, I am wondering if I made a mistake anyway.
I filled the new oil via the hole for the ABS sensor (slow and carefully) and stopped when oil started to come out there. I did not check the amount that went in and the oil box I used was not full when I started. Therefore I can not calculate back now to find out.
I am wondering if I should have metered the right amount of oil upfront and not fill in up to the speed sensor hole.

Any thoughts or recommendations are appreciated.

Sounds like too much oil there! I`m sure that I didn`t put anywhere near that amount into mine. I`m sure they`ll be an amount that should be put in it somewhere on the net or even ring your dealer. Don`t run the bike with that amount in otherwise I imagine it`ll be oozing out of all available seals

Go find a chemist or a junkie, get a syringe and put it in more accurately.

You need 220 ml.

Ok, I see I have to do it all over again.

Thank you very much for your competent and quick help.
