    im going to be doing a tune up i got the oil and fuel filter coming in and plugs. i need to know what the gapping should be on the plugs so i can double check em when they come in and how much of what oil type would be best. i have a 96 kat 600 with about 5000 miles. and is there anything else im forgetting???

        i just googled it when i changed the oil on mine. with a little lookin around you should be able to find it. or if you have the owners manual it'll be there. my 2005 750 kat took about 3.5 quarts.

          I think if you search the forum here you'll find a link to a PDF of the manual. Also, the CyberPoet has an awesome writeup on motor oils that are best for the kat. A search should bring up multiple threads on both topics.
