How much engine oil does the Honda 650R require?
1 Answers
For the Honda CB650F or CB650R, the engine oil capacity during an oil change is 2.6 liters, and when replacing the oil filter, the capacity increases to 2.9 liters. Always verify using the dipstick. Park the motorcycle on level ground, remove the dipstick and wipe it clean, then reinsert it (push it all the way in without screwing it in). Pull it out again to check that the oil level is between the lower and upper marks on the dipstick's grid pattern. Selecting the appropriate engine oil: When choosing engine oil, strictly adhere to the oil grade specified in the owner's manual. If the same grade is unavailable, only use a higher-grade oil; never substitute with a lower-grade oil. Additionally, ensure the oil viscosity meets requirements—don't just opt for the most expensive option without verifying its suitability. Draining and inspection: After the technician loosens the oil pan drain plug or oil filter to drain the used oil, note the following: Always install a new sealing washer on the drain plug before tightening it. Before installing the new oil filter, carefully inspect whether the old filter's rubber sealing ring was removed along with the filter.
