I've got a 1991 3VD 850 TDM.  Does anyone know how much oil it take to bring the level from low to full on the dipstick ?

That sounds reasonable, I'll give it a try when I need to.  I just didn't want to overfill the damn thing !   

I do seem to be one of the few who's not bothered by high oil consumption.....can only be my old fart riding style !

Probably, it's only the likes of motorway travel at sustained high revs which dunk it.
