Checked my oil yesterday after I put it in my shop and it didn't read on the dipstick at all! Checked it a few weeks ago and it was perfect. Bike does not smoke, leak, or anything that I know of anybody else have this issue?
When checking the oil, get the engine warm (not hot), let is rest for about 10 minutes and then check. This will allow the oil in the engine to flow back into the resevoir.

check the oil pressure first, it should read around 10 to 14 psi. If pressure is inside the range then your pressure sensor is bad. If lower or reads 0 psi your got a engine problem, further diagnosis needed.
Good luck.
Open the hood to your car, and find the dipstick. This is where your oil is kept at. Make sure to have a cloth with you, preferably a shop towel. Pull the dipstick out, and wipe with a paper towel. Put the stick back into the holder, and pull out again. Hold eye level and check where the oil left a marking. There should be measurements on your dipstick. Oil should always be checked monthly, or even weekly. This prevents your engine from blowing up or catching fire. If in need of oil, go to Advance Auto Stores, NAPA, or even walmart. Buy oil according to your budget , how many miles your car has on it. You will need five courts depending on your car. Double check with a sales Clerk.
Hi I doubt it will do any harm, return the car to dealer and request answers plus request they clean the engine compartment and the car as it looks and smells awful. In future make sure you shop around before having your car dealer serviced. Jp.
It sounds like your engine is low on oil. When you get home, turn your engine off, wait 5 minutes, the pull the dipstick and wipe it clean and re-insert fully, then pull the dipstick out again and look at the end of it; you will see the recommended level etched into the dipstick, if the oil level shows low (and it's a good bet it will), you need to add oil...and never use that shop again.
If the level is normal, the oil pressure sender may be faulty...ask your mechanic to check it and replace it if necessary.
