the capacity is about 3.8 liters. Just buy a gallon and meter it when the jug starts to get empty. Use the stock filters and factory line oils. Motul, redline, amsoil, golden spectra are also good oils. hold off on the synthetics until you reach about 8k miles.

I start off with motul mineral based motorcycle oil, then semi-synth for the first oil change and then finally fully sythetic from then on.
