Seems to be some debate on how much oil to add to a 2 stoke bike on oil changes. Some say to fill to the amount mentioned on the side of the transmission case. On my bike that's 650ml or roughly 3/4 quart. The other people say to fill till it comes out the "oil check bolt". On my bike thats 350ml. Thats almost a 50% difference and seems like a small amount.
Service manual and owners manual both say to use the oil check bolt. Transworld MX and ATC/MC both say use the case number.
Unsure who to trust. I normally 99.999% of the time trust the service manual. Unsure in this one.
What do YOU do?

Is bike level when filling?
I'm wondering if there is a special procedure for draining?
Or save yourself the trouble and just pour in the amount printed on the cases or in your manual and don't use the check screw.
Owners manual and service manual say go by weep hole. Today filled to the number on the case and rode for about 30 minutes.
