Oil inspection cover

[RobertW]

It seams that I saw a clear oil inspection cover for sale somewhere on line. Anyone seen this? I think it was just a standard cover with a glass inspection port.

I have seen a chrome cover with an external dipstick port - made by Kuryakin I believe.

I doubt whatever you saw was for a GL1800. In order to have an inspection glass for oil level you'd have to cut a hole into the engine case at dip stick reading level.

Actually I had an inspection glass on my Suzuki Boulevard C50! That would be a nice addition on the GL1800! But it doesn't exist to my knowledge.

MY GL 1000 has one but I'va not seen one on a 1800

I just went out and took a look at my trike. I don't see anyplace where a clear inspection cover could be conveniently placed. Not without some sort of modifications and possible drilling of the engine case. That's not to say that it CAN'T be done......
