I have an 05 Honda VTX 1300 motorcycle. What is the weight of the HONDA oil that is used by dealers for this application? How much oil does my motorcycle hold?Changing oil in a Honda VTX 1300 Motorcycle?
The 2005 Honda VTX1300 uses a Pro Honda GN4 or a Pro Honda HP4 (without molybdenum additives) 4 stroke motorcycle oil, or it's equivalent. The GN4 being a conventional Motor Oil and the HP4 is a Semi-Synthetic blend.
Recommended Viscosity is SAE 10W-30, but 10W-40 is fine. The difference between the two would be the ambient temperature that they can be used in. For colder climates, use the 10W-30. For warmer climates, use the 10W-40.
The unit takes about 3.9 U.S. Quarts.
Useless Oil Information:
API Classification: SG or higher except oils labeled as energy conserving on the circular API service label.

I have a 2004 VTX 1300 and on the repair order invoice from Maxim Motorsport the oil is noted as 10W40DRUM OIL. The invoice indicated that it took 4 quarts. I bought an extra quart that I carry in my saddle bags whenever I go on road trips.
