So I had the 600 mile service done recently. Bike seems to be running great and all. The only odd thing I noticed is that the oil showing in the sight glass is green like antifreeze?

Is that normal? Seems weird to me, but again...The bike seems to be running great and I'm not a mechanic. Don't know what oil was used either. But it was serviced at a reputable Ducati dealer.

Thanks for input guys.

The good thing is that the coolant is pink so it's not that. I will call the tech when they open Tuesday to verify, just wanted to see if any of you had seen or heard of such a thing in the meantime.

That was my first thought. I don't have a water cooled scooter anymore, so I don't know what color AF is besides the traditional green.

The more research I've done, it looks like it's Motul by the description. The color is not murky at all which is good.
I'll still call tomorrow just to verify and be safe.

Appreciate your helpful input guys.
