OK guys I'm hoping to hear an answer to this before I head up north thurs.
I remember how many oz's. the case holds on my vector with reverse.. 8.5. But I can't remember if the full level is at the standard or the reverse line ???????Thanks in advance. MM. :o|
 
I just changed mine. It took a lot less than 8 oz. to be at the REV line. I just kept adding a little until it was to the line for reverse. Only 3 oz. Seems too little to me. I thought I read once people were filling to the STD line for all models.
 
I measure out 8.5 oz and it fills it to the upper (std?) line. I have reverse and never had a problem.
 
standard level which is 250ml. Yamaha sells the lube prepackaged n that amount for all chain cases. ;)!
 
Thanks guys......... I thought it was 8.5 oz. I'll go back and check the level... So it "should" be at the upper level of the two............ MM.

Yes, it is 8.5 oz and it will fillit to the Std mark even if your sled has reverse. Here is a link to a threadon this topic.

Thank you for posting that link. Makes more sense now. I must have filled mine to the reverse line last time. I drained it and was like WTF, hardly any oil came out. Will fill it up to the higher line this time.
