    Anyone know if an owners manual is posted on line somewhere for a 1990 or third gen VFR? I'm looking for info on the recommend type and quantity of oil it uses. I'm running Shell Rotella 15w40 in my VF1000R, with good results.

    Hi John welcome!
    In the 90-91 Factory manual oil capacity is listed as 3.1qt, 3.3qt with filter change, 4.2qt at disassembly.
    Recomended oil Honda 4-stroke oil or equivalent. API service classification SF or SG.
    I have used Rotella in my bike with no prpblems.
    Search "oil" here on the site and you'll come up with many threads with brand and viscosity recomendations.

    The download link is broken on this site but you can download it form the VFRD site. Linky below.

    I've run the same Rotella oil in both my bikes for years with no issue btw.

    I have the little Owners Manual from my 1990 750 VFR that came with the bike that you can have for free if you want it

    (sold the bike long ago & found the owners manual in a box of old books that I had stored in the garage)

    The download is the factory service manual, the owners manual is just a few pages of general information.

    Switched to Rotella in the mach 1 91 with zero problems.
