Author Message   Union_man Posted on Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 12:57 pm:        I am away from home and forgot my manual. My oil filter is full, then how much more?   Natexlh1000 Posted on Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 01:42 pm:        I'm pretty sure it's 2.5 Quarts, total. I've put in the recommended amount in my 2008 and ridden it a bit then checked it seems like it wants the last half quart up to a total 3 though. I would suggest adding two full quarts beyond what you have in the filter and idle it for a bit. Then check it. I would wager that should get you close to the "add" line. Too much oil = puking out into intake Not enough oil = running hotter No oil at all = walking home   Union_man Posted on Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 02:04 pm:        Thanks   Union_man Posted on Sunday, June 26, 2011 - 02:06 pm:        BTW I used Royal Purple for the 1st time. I have been happy with Amsoil but thought I would try something new.
