You can check it cold or warm. If warm, wait 2 or 3 minutes after shutting off the motor to let it drain back to the sump. Check it while on the centerstand. I check it with the dipstick unscrewed, slide it in then pull it out and look. Oil should come up to the middle of the hash marks at the bottom of the dipstick.
Any good automotive quality 10W40 oil is what they like. A complete oil change only takes about 750ml.
