Engine Oil

Hey,
This may seem like a bit of an odd question, but...
Can anyone tell me whether or not you check the oil level with the dipstick fully screwed in or just sitting on the rim? :shock:
Apparently it's different on some bikes :?
Thanks,
Katy

sitting in the rim will do just fine on the NC30 son

I could be mistaken, but I think it's the same for all bikes with dipsticks: make sure there is at least some oil in the engine, then warm it up, switch off, pull out & clean dipstick, sit on the bike, wait for a minute or two, then insert deepstick back on without screwing it in, check level.
