I did my first oil and filter change on my new to me 2009 R1200RT.
Much easier and cleaner to do than any of my previous bikes.
Manual says 4liter with filter.
I put in 4qts and ran the bike for a few minutes and oil level was in the center of the site glass. All seemed good.
5min after the first real ride since the oil change, I check oil site glass and its over the top edge.
I recheck 1/2hr later its still to full.
What gives?
