Answer
hello, jim ,

im not to sure buyt the best way to do this is to put yur buike on a level area then drain the oil and filter if you have one o.k . Then you need to add oil slowly and check it after 1 quart you check the dipstick without screwing it in if its low you add alittle more i know for sure it takes more than 1 quart so just add 1 quart and chk and add a little more at a time untill the stick reads full;I hope this helps you if you need more info let me know o.k sorry i took so long getting back.

P.S please leave feedback for me o.k.

  Sincerely,
Mitch
