It should be 1.60 quarts. I can't really recommend an oil since I still have about 15 quarts of the old red cap Mobile 1.:D

For the winter on a semi-stock motor, I'll reccomend the AMSOIL ATV 0w40 Full Synthetic.

10w30 ,whatever is on sale,as long as you change your oil frequently,the stuff from the auto parts store has always worked for me:)

You really want motorcycle oil. The polymers in the car oils can make your clutch slip. Granted, the 250ex doesn't have enough power to make it slip, so you're probably ok with whatever. If you do notice your clutch slipping under heavy load switch to a 4-stroke motorcycle oil.
