When I changed the oil in the 03 Kat 600 just before selling it last
month, it took 4 litres (sorry, don't know what that translates into one
of the many dumb US form of measurements) and it was just a hair too
much. This without an oil replacement. I had followed the manual's
recommendation and I wish I had held back some 200ml.

best to go with a bit less, warm up that engine and take a reading.
Easier to add than it is to remove oil. But i would think that you
should be safe with one of your imperial gallons.

Ya, one gallon is around 3.6 liters. I am too lazy to look up the
exact number right now...

Oops, I meant without an oil filter replacement. If replacing the oil
filter than a full 4 litres may be a reasonable amount - although I'd
still hold back a little. As stated, easier to add oil than it is to
remove it after an overfill.

quantity(in ML.) is cast into the case....
