Did I Just Overfill?

  1. 848 evo 2011.

    Today I parked the mc towards the wall (think it was in level). I filled oil just below the upper marking. See picture. But if I move her a little bit towards me the oil reaches top of the oil level indicator glass. I filled the oil filter before fitting it. Took her for a spin.

    When she is on the side stand there is no oil visible in the indicator. When keeping her upright just a little bit to the left the oil is on max level. A few inches/cm to the right the oil is filling up the glass.

    Do I need to remove some oil?
     
  2. The level reading is correct when the bike is upright and on level ground.

  3. Looked better today when I balanced the mc to tilting point.
     
  4. It should look like this one.
