Question
What is the oil capacity on a 2002 Yamaha v star 650?

Answer
Kenneth,

-It's 3 us quarts with filter change.
I suggest adding 2 quarts and then
run the engine briefly to fill the
oil filter and then top it up as
necessary after it sits for a minute.
-Check the oil level with the bike level.
-Use 10w30 or 20W40 motorcycle oil.
