Post subject: | oil level sight glass replacement part candidate? |
Hello... I was looking through this forum trying to find a source for an oil sight glass. Came across the requried dimensions and did a web search.At http://www.jwwinco.com there is a part # EN 541 that may be a likely candidate. I don't know the operating temperature for the oil in the Pantah motors,so could someone please confirm whether this part will be suitable for our bikes. Thank you... R.Berg ![]() |

I don`t know about that, but there`s a german guy on ebay selling them. The quality is good. I bought a spare some time ago. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ducati-P ... enameZWDVW G. |

Hey... These parts are imported from Germany and sold in the U.S.A. At $5.26 USD they are worth a look. Thanks ![]() |

There should be a thread somewhere where I mentioned trying to find the sight glasses and ordered some from jwwinco. Without searching for the thread, the ones I bought were 2mm too small in diameter, so they would not screw in. I thought about making an adapter for a smaller size that they offer, but opted not to. Instead, I found a guy parting out a Pantah 650 engine and contacted him about the sight glasses. He had both, so I bought both of them (the oil and timing sight glasses are the same except the timing sight doesn't have a reflector). The other alternative I was thinking of doing, as my oil sight glass was leaking from a couple of small cracks, was just just swap the oil and timing glasses. I've got a spare timing sight glass without the reflector and the original oil sight glass with small cracks in it. |
