Looking for oil level window

Post by fredskidoo »

Anybody have an oil level window for my '87 paso? Right side if there is a difference.

Thanks, Ethan

That source never worked out. I bought some, but they didn't fit. I wound up buying a set of sight glasses (oil and timing) from GuzziTech on eBay who was parting out an older Pantah engined bike. The sight glasses are interchangeable between models with Pantah engines. The ones I got came from a 650.

If your sight glass is leaking badly, you can swap the oil and timing sight glasses as a temproary fix. Since the timing sight glass is not submerged in oil, you will only see a little (if any) leaking while riding it. I "may" have a spare laying around, but it would be the timing sight glass and not the oil one with the reflector.

And of course now after replacing the oil level window I need the timing window as well - i.e. oily shoe!!
