It has an oil level "check bolt"

Right Crankcase Cover #12
Hold the bike straight up and down (as if you were sitting on it).
Remove the check bolt.
Add oil until it starts to drain out of the hole.
EDIT - Then stop adding oil.
When it stops draining, re-install the bolt.
Any quality brand name 4 stroke motor oil is fine.
You'll hear a lot of naysayers saying, only use oil made for motorcycles.
I'm not going to get into that debate again.
If just put'in around 10w-40 is good
If using in racing conditions, or for long periods of time, use 20w-50 - it won't thin out as fast as a lighter grade.

The gear box oil is definitely different from the motor oil. There should be a plug on the side of the gear box if the oil runs out when you remove it, the level should be fine. Check the manual for the type of gear oil to use, it is usually 80 or 90 weight.
