Do you check the engine oil level when the bike is on the centerstand?

Thanks

I believe the official way is to keep your bike upright, not on the stand or jiffy; not easy to check the level when you're alone... :confused:

So I use the centerstand, never had problems...

Thanks for the replies. I am not sure what happened but somehow I over filled by one quart! I put it on the center stand and filled to the proper level.

Thanks Again
