Put your bike on the high stand and thn check the oil level at the right handside cover just above the brake pedal. It should be fully covered with oil.
The standard capacity of oil for is around 2.5litres without the oil cooler and if with oil cooler (the one tht frm XJ650) the oil capacity is thn 3.8 litres.

SOURCE: oil capacity?
Should be 3.5 Liters / quarts with the filter change. Put in 3 liters then top up as needed to get the level to the top of the viewing window.
To check your oil, bike should be level, on it's center stand, engine should NOT be running!
Any oil viscosity between 10w30 and 20w50 will work just fine. Smaller numbers if the weather's cooler and/or you only do short rides. Bigger numbers for hot weather and longer rides.
SOURCE: Where is the oil filter located on a 1985 Yamaha
the Yamaha xj700 maxim x (1985) DOES have an oil filter. it is on the front of the bike, about as far down as you can get. it's held on with one bolt.
SOURCE: how much and what kind of oil should i use in my
You should only use a JASO MA certified motorcycle oil. 10w-40 for cold climate and 20w-50 for warmer climate. Do not use any oil that is Energy Conserving it will shorten the life of your wet clutch and transmission gears. Synthetic oils will help you bike run cooler and shift easier especially in hot weather.
