how are you checking? the bike on side stand, rear stand... holding it vertical?

my bike reads over full when on the rear stand... when vertical it's perfect.

if it's over full crack the nut and drain some... it's messy but easy. espeically since yours is a naked bike...

not sure what damage could happen if you run it slightly over full

I am checking by pulling it up. Cutty reversed the stands to fit his bike I guess.... I am a little scared to drop the nut though if I let some out....
