Default Oil level 954rr

A quick question lads:

When my 954 is on a rear paddock stand, should I be seeing oil in the glass? I'm not seeing any, should I be concerned? If I use a spirit level and hold the bike so as the bubbles are centralised, I can see oil halfway in the sight glass.

paranoid she's using oil. No smoke, no leaks, no gunk in coolant, praying it isn't rings.....

Cheers.

Correctly measured with tires on the ground. I think the rear stand alone puts it at such an angle that the oil leaves the sight glass area.

Thank fork for that! Was starting to worry me that I could see nothing. Cheers.
