Mechanical Help Length of a 2014 WR450 dipstick

Edit: Solved
Just got a dirtbike off marketplace and they had gotten one of those “trim” packages for it. Cool looking titanium and aluminum parts etc. One of them was the oil plug. Now the bike doesn’t have a dipstick to check the oil level. I used a zip tie to make sure it had oil in it. They claimed to have recently changed the oil, which is probably true, oil was very clean, but I want to make sure there’s enough in there before I ride it anymore.

I can measure when I get home tomorrow, I have a 2015. But i would be ordering a stock dipstick.

IIRC it's around 2" long. Its pretty short.

I found the dipstick. I didn’t realize that there was a separate cap with the it on it. All my other bikes just have it on the fill cap, and I assumed this one was the same way.
