I don't believe I've seen that written anywhere, didn't look at what bike you have, but I would say mine is about a half a quart up to full cold.
Just wondering why you would want to know, if you get a 50/50 mix as long as you have enough, who cares, a gallon for an empty system you should have enough, when I changed mine I used a gallon and had about a cup left over. I used this Peak Global, I think it was Red if you want to know, but had all the requirements for my bike R3T 08.
Be careful with the bleed bolt, ss and not magnetic, I suggest putting some gum or something in a socket, I used some Clay bar, work's good, the first one I dropped behind the oil tank, spent 2 hours trying to fish it out, about 1 hour before I found out it's not magnetic , and finally gave up and added a couple washers to I think it was a M6x12 bolt and I think the stock one is M6x10, took a week for the right bolt to come in, not in stock, ingenuity, curiosity killed the kittie right I also have I think a 4mm hex bit behind the oil tank too
