Hello. I just picked up a et2 50 and had a question on oil fill. I found owners manual on the site which was very helpful. However in the manual it show a dipstick which I do not have. I am wondering if it broke or a different version. I attach a pic. Any help is appreciated.

No dipstick on my ET 2 !

Just look down the hole, you'll see the oil

There is not dipstick on ET2. You would check it another way. I regularly refill it about 500 kms.

No dipstick on either the ET or LX, just a case of using a torch and trusting your oil warning light. You'll know when it needs topping up because when it gets low the light flickers when you go round corners

There is a dipstick for the rear hub oil...which you should change out, if you don't know when it was last done......75-85 api gl4 type, 80cc's
Use the first mark to the second mark from the tip of the dipstick for checking the level....
