Fitted y-piece yesterday, bike just serviced, oilsight glass full. Ran the engine for a couple of minutes to check zorst system for leaks. Checked this morning, oil level halfway down glass. Where did it all go!!??

Run the bike for a couple of minutes and as if by magic it will appear again.

Forgot to say I'd been out on a run for about 50 miles after the service so the oil filter thingy's a nonstarter. Will give it a run and see if it re-appears as if by magic.

Go For a quick scoot and get it warm

Park on side stand for 5 mins and then put on centre stand and wait for 30 seconds till it settles?

Where is it Then?

Wot 'e said.
Its probably hiding in the oil cooler.
Check oil by the book to avoid overfilling,leaks,blown seals etc.

So long as you can see oil in the sight glass, don't worry about it.
