The single best thing you can do to maintain the bike is clean it aftter riding. I have a 2008wr450 and it looks almost new. I change the oil every 3 rides and clean the air filter every 3 rides. The 650 ml3 stands for 650 cc this is the amount of oil used when changing the oil. When you change the oil, usually every 20-30hrs on a 2 stroke, there should be a weep hole. when you fill the oil back up, go slowly when the oil starts to weep out the hole the bike is full. If you look closely there will be 2 bolts with copper washers on them 1 is for the cooling system on the water pump cover. The other will be for the oil (weep hole) the oil is actuallay drained underneath on the cases.

Hope this helps

Sorry forgot to tell you which oil to use. use an oil that is wet clutch approved. I get mine from autozone, you can use 10w-30 or 10w-40

so then oil with those ratings would work?
