Check transmission oil level (125/144 SX)
In order to check the transmission oil level the control screw [1] on the clutch
cover is to be removed. Oil should just barely escape from the inspection open-
ing when the motorcycle is in an upright position. If necessary, remove the
plug [2] and top up with oil (e. g. Motorex Top Speed 4T 15W50).
Transmission and clutch will be subjected to excessive wear and tear if you
use too little or low grade oil. Use only high-grade oil (e. g. Motorex Top Speed
4T 15W50).

izontal surface. Remove oil drain plugs [3] and [4] and drain the used oil into
an appropriate container. Clean the magnets of the oil drain plugs and mount
them together with the appropriate gaskets.
