Changed the rear diff oil on my ST1100. Old oil looked perfect, but service records showed it was last changed 24,000 miles ago. I really wish I had left well enough alone.
It didn't seem to take much oil. I have it level on the Condor chock on the trailer because it has been lowered so I can't get it on the centerstand by myself.
Would it be OK to try to add a little when it is on the sidestand? No oil came out when I removed the top plug, so I guess I'm not that far off, but I'm not out of the neck of the squeeze bottle. I tried to squeeze in more oil but it went everywhere. I'm afraid of an airlock somewhere.
