Hi
I overfilled my 1600 xflow with oil.............. only by 10mm on the dipstick, will it be OK? or should I drain some out?

Drain some out, its easy, simply remove sump plug.

You don't want the crank thrashing about in the oil, causes frothing, loss of pressure and guess what happens next.

It will leak out all on its own, as its a xflow



But you should take some out, as it will smoke heavily over about 3k
