Today I learned the valuable lesson to never let anyone incompitent use your bike. I have an 09 kx250f that's been on about ten rides. After cleaning the caked on mud off, I started her for about two minutes because I was going to change the oil. As I pulled back into my garage, my brother shouts and the exhaust tube coming directly out of the engine block was glowing bright red. I immediately shut it off. I drain the oil, only to find out that of my .9 liter capacity was filled with about .5 liters of oil, extremely short. I filled her back up with almost a full liter and started her up. I also checked the coolant and it's topped off. Here is where I have some questions (if you can't tell me anything already)
I started the engine. 5 seconds later felt the exhaust pipe, steming directly from the engine block, and it was already too hot to touch. Is this normal?
Then, when inspecting the oil level window to figure out if I had put the right amount of oil in, I noticed it had turned a misty dirty brown color, and the oil level is not visible, even when tilting the bike either which way. 5 hours later I checked the window, and it was no longer that misty dirty brown color. I am stumped and scared!
Is it normal for an exhaust to get bright red? What does it mean?
Is there a blockage in my exhaust?
What is the brown dirty color in my oil window?
Will my engine sieze if I run it?
Any help is appreciated
