4 US quarts is 3.78 L.
Our oil here in the US generally sold in 2 ways by the quart or by the gallon (4 quarts).

Yep, on a normal oil change I just would dump the 4 quarts and call it a day. But with the new longer filter I did the actual measurement using the sight glass to the upper hash mark.
Since I knew I was going to measure it, I started with a previously opened jug (never again).
I'm pretty sure he got ya'.
Bimota strikes me as a person that knows how to use Google conversion. Hell, even I can. . . . and do. 
It is like 2 pints of Guinness.

or 5 gallon containers, or 55 gallon drums, or in bulk delivered right off the truck pumped into whatever container you choose.
Well, that amount would keep the oil light from coming on.

Don't feel bad Rob, I cannot stand the American measuring system. I tried to use metrics when I ran a fabrication shop and was almost hanged!!

Only time I had the oil light come on was because the wire going to sending unit had been cut. I was coming into a corner and a turtle was in my lane I hit the turtle it must have got airborne and nicked the wire. Light came on stayed on until I discovered the wire .Fixed wire and ordered a skid plate.

Remember when the US tried to go metric in the '70s? Didn't go so well so we gave up.
One specific fail I remember was Shell stations (in my area at least) all started selling gas priced by the liter. People couldn't cost-compare (pretty important for buying gas in the '70s) so they stopped going there.
I literally still use a verse or two from this PSA from my childhood.

I do remember well!! Unfortunately it did not take hold. I was in jr. high when we were learning the conversion. I was actually excited and wanted it to become the new standard. I am of the belief it was the oil embargo that killed it.
Good news is when I am in my garage no one can tell me what system I have to use. So metrics it is!!
