Bike: CB1300 (if that makes any difference)

What is behind the right hand side engine casing?

I need to remove it to clean the inside of the oil sight glass. If I put the bike on the side stand, and jack-up the right hand side of the bike, will I be okay to remove the engine casing?

Once you get the cover off a good squirt of brake or carb cleaner is what I use to clean the sight glass.

Done it, and found it refreshingly easy.

It was only when I came to clean the window that I realised it has a self cleaning wiper.

It was good experience though.

Thanks for the advice Thumbs Up .
