1987 5 Speed trans. That's what the Factory manual says. Been putting 1 pint in since 1987 with no problems. Don't know what your 93 holds. Newer ones must hold more.

The dealer comment was joking and not aimed at you, so don't take offense. (Still need to get that sarcastic font installed.) I thought it was funny that the dealer that didn't fill my tranny and cost me a tear down was in northern Ohio same as you.

No offense taken. I usually don't post something without checking it first. Got to wonder if the mech who did your bike here assumed it only took a pint? When I bought my bike new another customer warned me about some of the mechanics. He called them "Chip" and "Nick". One melted my gas tank door cover with a hot drill right in front of me and tried to denied it. After that I never trusted any of them. I would always check any of the mechanics work. Once the warranty was over so were they.
It just sucks that you have to suffer because of someone's incompetence. There seems to be a lot of that ,at least around here. Dealerships don't want to pay anyone with experience. One dealership here fired everyone and hired kids.
I would love to check out Aruba. Don't see why some people got to insult you.

Good for you man. Enjoy what you have earned. We are looking at homes in FL now. Not Aruba but it will do....This is why I drive such a cheap a$$ bike and truck. Got to get ready for the beach/boat house.

I am sorry if you took that as an insult. I was actually giving him a hard time by joking. That is what sucks about the internet I guess. You never can tell what people mean.
Everyone on here ( At least the EVO page) is pretty cool. Some people on the General are kind of a$$holes at times.
