Having recently bought a 95 916sp I am a little confused over the use of the site glass on the left hand side of the bike (not the oil reservoir). There appears to be no fluids in this, is this normal and if so for what use is it?

With the bike upright say on a paddock stand, the oil level should be visible through the window. I was always told as long as the oil reached at least half way up the window, there was enough of the slippy stuff inside the engine!
Wrong Yeti, there shouldnt be any oil visible on the sight glass on the left hand side of the bike unless the motor is running. The oil level one is on the right hand side of the engine.
