fork capacity for Shadow VT500C?

Can anyone tell me what the fork oil capacity is on a 1985 Honda Shadow
VT500C?
I just rebuilt my forks but don't know how much fluid to add.
I cannot judge by the old capacity since the fork seals leaked out much
of the fluid.

Clymer sez 440cc on right and 445cc on left for 1983/1984 shadow.
Don't know if '85 is same.

From the official honda service manual page 15-34

Specified fluid ATF (You should use forkoil not atf oil due to leakage
problems. So a fork oil 10 is a better choice)
after '84 VT500C 422 cc (15,0 USoz) each leg.
Torque spec's
fork tube cap, 15-30 Nm (11-22 ft-lb)
fork bridge 9-13 Nm (7-9 ft lb)
Steering stem 45-55 Nm (33-40 ft-lb)
fork brace 18-28 Nm

I think the fork was changed from 1984 to 1985. Does your manual list
both years? I found a page online that said the 1985 model takes 375cc,
but cannot confirm it.

Yes it does,
83 and 84 vt500ft and C 390 CC 13,2 u.s. oz. each leg.
