if its chinese, sounds like one, someone was trying to make a sale of four versus one litre of oil, and two, wanted you to kill it, so as to be able to sell you a new jap bike...wasnt a yamaha dealer by any chance was it?
um, did you ever stop to wonder what the dipstick is for? they dont include them with the engine for nothing, you realise...
im amazed you even got 4 litres into it...id say youve just rooted your engine...

He probably asked the guy at the shop "How much oil will it take to FILL my motor ?"... instead of asking how much oil it takes to fill to the top mark on the dipstick ... So the guy (thinking about the overall size of a horizontal engine) has told him about 4 litres ... LOL ... A V8 car engine would take about 3 buckets of oil to FILL ...
i just thought the asian company would put hardly any in there cause they are tight arses i was only going on what the guy at the shop said ive never even changed oil on a bike ever
na he knew what it was for i was there picking up the bike and he told me to get oil i grabbed the 1 litre and he said na grab the 4 it will take all of that
