it's stamped on the crankcase where you pour in the oil. You may have to remove the belly pan or the right side fairing to see it. I believe it's 3700mL at least for mine. -
Mine holds 6 quarts and 10W-40 is stamped on the fill plug.Comment

Make damn sure you don't use ANY oils marked energy conserving. It's best to use a motorcycle oil as a majority of automotive use friction modifiers which will glaze over your clutch.Originally posted by butim View Post

I use the standard suzuki oil from the dealer. Put the bike on the centerstand. add the 3-4 quarts of oil and start the bike, and let it idle for a minute or so. then check the oil level in the window and add in 1/2 quart increments till full.Bling....Comment

Why would my Kat hold that much oil?Comment

Are you sure the location it is sitting at is on level ground where you check it? Turn in 90 degrees then 180 degrees and see how the levels compare.-2000 "750"

3.5 litres of Repsol 4T for me
