Checking Transmission Oil (I NEED HELP)

[Dantheman250]

Hey i got a new CRF 250R about a year ago and im still getting used to the maitenance and stuff. Iv tried checking the transmission oil many times by following the manual but it never works. I start the bike and let it warm up for 3 mins, let it settle for 3 mins, take off the cap and unscrew the check bolt. usually, no oil comes out, so i add a little bit. once it starts coming out, it wont stop. just keeps flowing. im wondering if im doing something wrong. if anyone can help me that would be great. THANKS.

When I had my CRF450, I didn't bother with the check bolt. I measured the amount of oil it was supposed to take with a ratio rite, poured it in and called it good. That method you are using caused me a head ache once, and I never did it again.
