4 quarts with filter is what i use on my 99, fill it, run, shut it off, and check that the oil level is between the lines cast into the case beside the sight glass. it may take a minute or so after it was running for oil level to show true .i will also add that it is not uncommon for a vmax under hard acceleration for the oil light to come on or flicker, this is normal and is due to the oil being forced to rear of engine, and the oil level light can flicker, the sump is in rear of engine and will still be circulating

Transmission fluid in a Yamaha Vmax?

Your VMAX does not use a separate transmission fluid. Your clutch is a wet clutch and uses the same oil as your engine. Use the manufacturers recemmended oil weight, either 10W-40 or 20W-50. I recommend a synthetic that is specially formulated for motorcycle wet clutch applications.

Were is the dipstick on your 2000 Yamaha vmax?

there is no dipstick on a Yamaha vmax. only an oil sight glass window for the oil on the bottom right side of the engine near the front. the oil fill is on the right side of the engine, near the back. make sure you fill your oil slightly higher than the sight glass window so you don't lose oil pressure when you nail it (when you hammer on it and your oil light comes on, you're running without enough oil and could cause engine damage). I have a 2001 and i use about 4l of oil, instead of the 3.5l the bike specifies.
