I dont own a raptor but im gonna swing for the fences here and say refilling the oil resi is the same is anything else. The hole where the dipstick uncscrews from, just stick a funnel in there and fill it with the recomended amount.

Okay listen to this. Black resovoir the the front of the bike, see the hose running from the left of the engine cover to that? Unplug that hose from the clamp and let the oil drain out of that also. Put it back after that has also drained. Put a quart of oil into the black resovoir. Start the bike for 20 seconds (letting it circulate so the resovoir has an accurate reading). Then add another quart. STart it for another 20 seconds. Then on level surface check it and if it needs a little more add it, it could use 3 quarts i forget, just remember what i have said.
Also, remember After you drain the oil open the oil filter and replace it, the oil filter is what cleans the oil, and if you put clean oil through a dirty oil filter, clean oil gets dirty! So remember that too!
And, Have fun with that raptor, very fun fast and powerful bike [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

MAKE SURE YOU DON'T PUT CAR OIL IN YOUR ATV, insted get some motorcycle oil. Vavoline actually makes ATV oil, but I usually go for a synthetic MOBIL 1 motorcycle oil.
