Hi,

I have a 2001 Kawasaki ZRX 1200 R and there is no centerstand on the ZRX as well....
I also have to check the window for oil level.

I found a trick if you are alone.

I use a telescopic mechanics mirror. So, I straddle the bike making sure it's level then I use the mirror on the "stick" to view the oil level.

It's a pretty cheap way to get it done.
I always felt like the bike was going to fall over and crush me when I tried to hold it upright and then bend down to check the oil level window.

Plus the retracted mirror fits right in my tool space under the seat.

Hope that helps.

Bill
