Pull the clutch while it's empty. Replace the filter. Full amount of oil - with the bike leaned to the left so as not to spill oil.Once the light's out, replace the clutch and button up the side cover.

Thank you sir, I apologize for the delayed update but, life... Anyhow, I finally got back to the bike yesterday, in looking at the parts fische for my bike last week, I noticed an o-ring that went into an opening from the sump cover to the bottom of the engine that I did not know was there, hmm.. Since I did not recall seeing one when I removed the sump cover originally, I ordered a new one along with a Caltric stator, SH775AA regulator, and the Triumph harness.
I finally got back to the bike yesterday, I pulled the sump cover back off and checked that o-ring, it was still there but was as flat as a piece of paper, replaced that o-ring, put everything back together, went ahead and changed the stator, and added new oil to it (again). I let it sit overnight last night to make sure I didn't have any oil leaks and to assure the oil would fill any open cavities (probably unnecessary but just for piece of mind)..
Started 'er up just a few minutes ago to see if the oil light went off, lo and behold, roughly 6 seconds into running, the oil light (and side stand light) went off, no priming involved !!!!!!!! I can hardly contain myself !!!! Now to change the regulator and wait on my harness to plug 'er in !! Thanks everyone, y'all are awesome !!!!
I've flooded my crankcase a couple of times over the years. It's really clean in there and no harm has ever shown up. Just change the oil out properly.Similar threads
