Welcome!

Put the bike on the side stand, and locate the rather large nut on the left side, down near the shifter. Remove it, and a screen, a spring and a litre of oil will follow. Clean the screen, pop it and the spring back in, and replace the cap. Be gentle; the cap can easily crack and be useless.

Don't trust the dipstick. Hold the bike upright, and use the sight glass to tell you when you've added enough oil.
