Seriously, couldn’t they just extend the tube a bit so it overhangs the exhaust pipe???

    The entire comment section seems to be missing this is assholedesign and offering the same shitty solutions without addressing the asshole design…

      No, this is not asshole design. If the oil port was sticking further out, it’s gets knocked off if you lay the bike down. And then you have no oil at all, and a blown up motor.

      It’s by good design the oil port is recessed. Yes it’s annoying to use a funnel, but it’s the preferable option.

        ?? Oil port would only need to be extended by like 0.5" to clear that exhaust pipe, the casing to the left extends probably 1-2" from that. If you lay the bike down it that casing would stop the oil port from being touched. Shouldn’t be an issue.
