No, not the environmentally friendly kind.
I was changing the oil and filters on a few bikes yesterday when I noticed the the oil that came out of the 2015 C14 had a greenish tint to it. All of the bikes that I was working on had the same oil in them, but just the C14 oil looked greenish. My first thought was that engine coolant had gotten into the oil. So, I went to check the coolant level. I crawled around the left side fairing with a flashlight for a while but couldn't see the overflow tank. Time ran out, so I'll try again in a couple of days. If I have to remove the fairing lower to check coolant level, then I will.
Has anyone come up with 'green' oil before? If so, what was the cause?
Also, is there an easier way to check coolant level.
Thanks
Rich
