Oil level a little high
 
My last oil change I put in a little bit too much oil. Instead of being to the top line it is above it and fills the window...if I tilt the bike eve so slightly to the left and I mean slightly, it goes to the top line...need to worry about anything? I put in 3.5 as directed during last change...guess in the future I'll add 3 and then slowly add a bit more

I doubt you need to worry. Stunters purposely overfill there bikes with oil so when the are up-on-one for a long time, their engines don't get starved for oil.

The stealership did that to my bike and I didn't even notice it for weeks. I haven't had any problems, and I don't take my bike to the dealers anymore.

I just did my oil change & measured it out to the drop, but depending on where I place the dip stick, its either just right or just over. Don't worry about it.
