Hi,

I know it doesn't make a huge difference on the Waves as they are bullet proof, but what is the correct way to measure oil level ?

The dip stick has such a small level marker ie between min and max.

Should the dip stick be screw into the housing for the correct level or unscrewed ?

This is a difference of about 5mm which is the same as the level marker !!

I just put about 600ml in and it seems full when I screw the dip stick in half way

Any advice ?

Those types of dipsticks should be measured with the dip stick pressed squarely into its housing (not screwed in)

But there are some exceptions, there should be an online manual for your bike in English somewhere

For honda wave, you have to check it unscrewed or just one turn.

Thanks guys...

I think people have been searching for an English manual online for ages.. Still not seen one !!

Honda Wave 125S 2005...

Does the Honda Wave go by a different name in other countries?

If so that might bring up a few more results with google

Wouldn't know...

I go to the market and back on mine, never investigated in depth

And further to this, is it meant to be leaning over to the left a little bit as parked or up straight on its other stand?

The Honda Wave — also marketed as the NF series, Innova in Europe, and Supra in Indonesia... That may help finding the manual.
