Okay, you experienced KDX owners: I just changed the gearbox oil. The Factory Service manual says it takes .65 liters. It also says to put the oil in, start and idle the bike for 3 minutes, stop the engine, let it sit for several minutes and check the gearbox lube sightglass.
I put in exactly .5L of oil...the sight glass was full, then started the engine, and while it was running the sight glass emptied(to be expected). When I stopped the engine, the sight glass filled up completely...with only .5 liters of oil in it.
What gives??
(PS I performed a "search" function prior to posting this...with no results.)
