The oil dipstick on a Yamaha Vstar 650 motorcycle is typically located on the right side of the bike, near the engine. It is usually a long, slender metal rod with a handle on top for easy removal and checking of the oil level. To access the dipstick, you may need to remove any covers or panels that are blocking it. Be sure to consult the owner's manual for specific instructions on locating and checking the oil dipstick on your Vstar 650.
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.
After an oil change on a Honda VTX 1300, the oil level should be between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick when it is fully seated. To get an accurate reading, make sure the motorcycle is on a level surface and the engine is warm but not running. Remove the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it fully, and then check the level to ensure it’s within the proper range. If the oil level is low, add oil gradually until it reaches the correct level.
There is no such thing as motorcycle or car oil. They are one in the same. They are both 4 cycle oils. They may be labeled motorcycle oil but they are the same as the oil used in cars. As long as you use the correct weight you are using the correct oil. I highly recommend you use a full synthetic oil in your air cooled 50 cc engine.

Each manufacture uses a special blend of oil in their automobile shocks. Unless you are talking about the front tubes on a motorcycle you cannot replace the oil. Refer to your owners manual for the correct oil to use in a motorcycle.
