does it have an oil level check plug ? usually a M6 bolt with a 10mm head/phillips combined.

my CR250RG (1986) takes 650cc

you dont have to take water pump off, its accessable from the outside. what he should have said is the bolt is on the left off the water pump casing as you are looking at the water pump. email me and i will send you a pic of location.

US manual says 0.7 qrts after draining and 0.8 qrts after reassembly - just check on the conversion but I got about 650ml and 760ml respectively.

Hope that helps.
