I also fill the oil filter with oil and add a little to the oil filter compartment when changing the oil. This keeps the lubrication system primed so you have adequate pressure on start up. I wouldn't want anything more than 1,000ml (cc's) as the oil level would definitely be above the sight glass window.
These oil changes are getting expensive for me though. I’ve got 10 hours on my xcf and done 3 oil and filter changes with motorex.

On my 250xc I changed the oil every every time I blinked because I used cheap Rotella and I didn’t have to remove the skid plate every time!
I now own a 2019 FC350 & a 2019 KTM 450 FE Herlings replica. Some tracks suit the 450 a little better & some suit the 350 better. but i think the 350 is more fun to ride & I probably feel a little more in control.
Having rode both i now think for me, a 350 with a few go faster parts on it might be the answer.
Does anyone know if the akrapovik muffer from the 450 will bolt right onto the the fc350?
Also, the new KTMs with the engine tuning app. How good is that app? Or is it still better to get a ecu remap from twisted or someone?
You can also remove the baffle from your FC. I made a thread about it in Tech forum.
Did you notice any power increase? Can you send the link to the thread?
Also, the KTM which has the same engine has no baffle.

Still waiting on the 2018 intake boot.
I would be interested to hear comments on any real improvement on FMF slip-on vs. stock.
I look down the throat of the stock exhaust with no obstruction to the mid pipe and cannot see how a slip-on can significantly improve flow or performance. I have after market systems on other bikes that did benefit from weight savings and maybe better position of power in the range but that's about it.
Pit Row
I felt like I was ripping on it until my foot caught the outside of a rut and sent me over a little step up with my feet blown off the back of the bike. I hit the ground pretty hard and ended up breaking my collarbone, 6 ribs and collapsing a lung. I have been here in the hospital all week ordering parts for her so she should be ready to rock and roll when I am cleared to ride.
Respect the parts order from the hospital!
