400EX. I am goin to do an oil change tommorow and need to know if the oil should be between the full and low mark after u warm it up or when its cold.

you've got to warm the bike up for 4 or 5 minutes.. let it idle! if you goose it you will get an inaccurate reading!

just let it idle for 5 minutes, it should be between the min + max marks..
