Hello, I´m new here. I was searching for info and noticed that lots of people are looking for a manual. I bought an XV500 SE this spring and recieved a manual with it, in english, french and german. I don´t think it´s legal to reprint all the info, but I´m sure I can send a few pages as pdf-file if you´re still interested. Just give me your emailadress. For a periodic oilchange you need 2.4 L and with oil filter replacement you will need 2.5 L. They recommend SAE 20W 40 type SE motor oil over 5°C and between 0 and 15 °C you should use SAE 10W 30 typeSE motor oil.
