The dipstick is on the right side of the crankcase, as seen when sitting on the bike. The dipstick has a triangular plastic head below the top knob, with a flat section at the end. For the most accurate measurement, place the bike in upright position, don't let it rest on the side stand. Unscrew the dipstick and wipe all oil of it, especially make sure there is no oil trace on the flat section. Then, put it in again and screw tight. Unscrew and look at the flat section. If the oil does not reach that part of the dipstick, then you must add oil as soon as you can and don't start the engine until more oil is added. If the oil reaches to the middle of the flast section or above, then the engine oil level is correct.

Use SAE 10w40 Full synthetic or conventional oil.
Pull the dipstick out and check the oil level.

No, this is impossible. You must switch off the engine and let the bike stand level for a few minutes before you check the oil level.

Most motorcyles have a liguid clutch which means they run in motor oil so when you change your motor oil you are changing your (gearbox) transmission oil and to check your (gearbox) transmission oil level you check the motor oil level.
The factory specs for a 2004 Honda vtx 1300 list the oil capacity at 3.9 quarts. Check the oil level to keep from overfilling.
