Should Alarm Bells be Ringing ? 749s with slight Mayo in sight glass & Oil filler cap

  1. Evening all.

    Just getting more up close & personal now with my 749s & have noticed a slight coating of oil Mayo on the engine oil sight glass & a v small amont inside the oil filler cap !!!
    Now the bike has
    Previously stood & only done v short journeys so could it just be a condensation build up ? Which will hopefully disappear when the outside temps rise & after a few good runs ?
    I have drained the oil & this has no Mayo in it (just black & worn out looking ) Nor does the coolant contain any Mayo

    Cheers

  2. It's normal. A good long run and leaving the oil filler cap off for a while when you get back will sort it.
     
  3. As above, nothing to worry about.
