Oil capacity...roughly 2 1/2 quarts, maybe more with filter change
Plug gap...not sure...best guess .035"
Tips:
Mainly watch the CV joint boots. Everything else seems bulletproof unless you drive like a maniac.
If the battery seems to be getting weak, clean all the connections, my 300 is notorious for that. Nothing is actually broken, just dirty connections. Dielectric grease helps.

Thanks farmr.
Just ordered some black waters, one size up as the there seems to be plenty of torque. Can't see as much can be done to the susp. We play hard so maybe this won't be the best choice (ATV) I know they have a great rep. as far as being tough. Will just treat rough without being abusive

One more thing, if you got it used, you might want to check the clutch adjustment. If you want to know the setting, I can look it up for you.

You may want to try starting with two quarts even with a filter. The filter is the Honda standard found on the Big Red and 300. With the front swingarm setup the CV boots are pretty protected.

If the suspension rough now with stock tires, the Blackwaters will be murder. You could skid timber with that Honda with Blackwaters. The only thing I found to help with the ride was Motrin before and after a day of riding.
