"Don't overfill the Middle Gear"

[prometheus578]

Oh... it's all fine and dandy for cruisin' around town, but get up to about 80 MPH and watch that vent tube start a'ventin' all over the side o' the bike!

Made a quick gauge with a needle-nosed pliers and a coat hanger. Should have done that in the first place.

The fun part is have a little water in the bottom, don't get it all out, then ride FAST in the heat. Not only do you get the oil all over the engine, side cover, battery, etc., the steam will EMPTY the middle gear!!
