    Fill it up to the bottom of the fill plug. A quart bottle will do at least two oil changes.

    until its full. Just bring it up as far as the threads on the filler bolt hole (the angled bolt on the rear of the assembly). good pics of it in the books. If you don't have the books pm me and i will get you the links for the pdf version.

    It's about 230 CC's if you need a guesstimate of volume.
    "it fills until it spills"

    Please note: the above advice assumes that you are on a level surface and using the center stand! Just fill until it starts pouring out and you're good.
