Question

How much oil does a 2005 kawasaki ninja 500r take?

Answer 1

You need 4 quarts on hand but it doesn't take that much. Drain oil and change filter. Put in 3 quarts of oil. Fire up bike and run for a few minutes then shut off and let cool down. Check your sight glass and fill it to between the lines. Should take about 3.2 quarts.

Answer 2

I do my best:

The 2005 Kawasaki NINJA® 500R sportbike has all the elements of a great mid-sized sportbike: torquey parallel twin engine, nimble chassis, comfortable ergonomics and wind protection, and sleek NINJA styling. It´s also inexpensive to own and operate.
