BDG, I can't see how a printed leaflet would help, as it would be almost horizontal.
I've used a plastic coke bottle with a finger off a rubber glove over its neck to fit in the filler hole on the 996 before, but
the fairing would stop me using this on the ST4S.

Maybe I'll just look out for a length of clear pipe and small funnel (thanks Glyn).
I'm just trying to think ahead so I can take the necessary gear incase I need to top it up on any of our trips.

I took all the panels off it yesterday to datatag the bike, and geeze is it a pallava. Who ever thought up the way that fairing is mounted didn't think about servicing or easy access

Cheers,
John.
p.s. Rockhopper, no idea. Same goes for words like spanner, helmet, or even piston
