Default Adding oil.

Engine cold, bike on the jiffy stand, the oil level is on the add mark. How much oil do I need to add to bring it back between the marks ?

Level will read low when cold. Run bike to operating temp then check. It might be full.

After a 25 mile ride the level was between the marks.

FULL is actually to much.
