[QUOTE="Constant Mesh, post: 247141, member: 615"] When it's on the centerstand you can check how level the bike is (side-to-side) with a bubble level. I sit a small bubble level on the fuel cap area. You'd be amazed how the level varies inside a garage on concrete. While checking the oil level in the final gear case recently some oil ran out when I removed the oil filler bolt. The bike appeared level but obviously it was tilted a bit to the left as compared to the its upright position when I changed/filled the oil previously. So small deviations from level can offer observable liquid level changes in sight glasses, etc. [/QUOTE]
