There is a oil level window on the side of the motor when checking level have motorcycle upright and level you should have a low level line and a full line! pretty much any motorcycle grade oil avoid car oil it's not designed to work in a wet clutch enviroment also remember when changing the oil upright check level and top off oil after running engine 2 to 3 minutes (you have to fill the oil filter) wait 2 to 3 min. before checking level!

How to do a oil change

Pull the drain plug, change the oil filter, replace the drain plug. Add oil until the dipstick reads full. Start the engine and make sure the oil light goes out. Check for leaks around the oil filter with the car running. Recheck the oil level, add as necessary. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them. Thank you for using FixYa.com!
