SOURCE: how much oil does a 2004 honda shadow aero 750
it takes between 3-4 quarts but that model has a dip stick on the oil cap so use it to check as you fill,also make sure to only use motorcycle oil,car oils break down to fast and were not designed for motorcycle use, honda makes a very good oil, i would use a 10w-40 for cold weather and 20w-50 for hot weather,also i would suggest a synthetic oil, it will shift easier and make those movable parts last allot longer. ( preventative maintenance )
SOURCE: I have a 2004 Honda shadow sabre, what oil weight
Your motorcycle comes from Honda usually with 10w-40 mineral base motorcycle oil. This is what they recommend for year round driving. You can use any oil that is JASO MA certified motorcycle oil. 10w-40 for cold climate (Wisconsin). 20w-50 for warm climate/touring. Car oils use different additives and may cause scoring in certain types of cam bearings. Do not use any oil that says " Energy Conserving " on the label . It will shorten the life of your wet clutch and transmission gears. If you choose Synthetic oils, they will help your bike run cooler and shift easier. Shell Rotella T and Rotella T Synthetic 15w-40 are inexpensive JASO MA oils. The 15w-40 would be a great all around weight for your needs. You will need 4 quarts of oil, an aluminum drain plug washer, and a filter. Pour in 3.2 quarts , run the motor, and check the oil level . Top up as needed.
SOURCE: What kind of oil do
Most people use Rotella 15w-40 or 15w-30. Or you can buy Honda specific oil which is spendy.
