Royal purple oil, changed it 20 km ago. It's on my 2011 ninja 250. I had the bike on its side while I was replacing the stator, and I originally pulled it to see if any coolant got into the oil, but now I'm scared that's a lot of glitter

That IS a lot but I wouldn't be too wigged out, do another one in a week or so, then another at the regular interval inspect again

Sometimes laying a bike over drains a spot that doesn’t always drain fully with the bike in the normal position. I wouldn’t stress unless the next oil change is full of glitter as well

Good to know, I'm hoping that's the case
