If you know you only put the ltr in it just leave it be and it will be fine.
The oil capacity of 1 ltr is stated for the engine when shiny new and empty, most oil changes leave a little bit behind (or alot depending on the engine) which will change the reading.
As long as it isnt significantly over it wont cause a problem. ____________________ Bikes owned :- 2001 nsr125, 1999 zx6r, 2006 yzf-r1, 2009 xmax 250, 2012 yzf-r1, 2015 MT-07

How much oil came out? It's difficult to get it all out so you'll probably have ~150ml sloshing about in there somewhere before you've even started to fill. This is why it's always best to stick ~80% of the required oil amount in, check and then top up gradually until the right level is achieved, rather than just relying on quantity.
But anyway, how far over the mark is it? I can't imagine that you retained a significant amount of the old oil however you did it. I doubt, therefore, that it's significantly overfilled. As such, it'll likely be absolutely fine. |
I purchased the bike from new. The first time i checked it was over filled as well and i took out some oil as i tought it had eccessive oil. But after the first change, it is over filled by a 1 liter oil. |

A Syringe and aquarium tubing work wonders. |
And if you don't have a syringe to hand, can use the pump from a handwash dispenser.
Oh wait, this is BCF. So a handwash is a thing.....nevermind.
EDIT: As others have said, its 1L from new. Plus, measurement is taken when engine has been run.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set-tles, remove the oil filler cap, wipe the dipstick clean, insert it back into the oil filler hole (without screwing it in), and then remove it again to check the oil level.
