Just done an oil change on mine, It's at the top line when stood up not on pad-stand.
A bit over full but it won't mind.
Yes I think it should be between the marks. :thumbup:
No I can't spell.

Use a good quality motorcycle specific semi synthetic 10w/40, don't bother with full synth, save the money and change it more often.......once a yr at least

If you don't know what oil is in the engine
Do an oil and filter change at least you will know what to top it up with .
