Fork Oil

Featured Replies

Can anyone please tell me how much and what grade oil to put in the forks of a 125cc TX250 with 32mm forks?

Thanks

Not sure if this helps but I have a 1981 Fantic 200 (FM350)

On this model the 125 and 200 (really 156) are the same except the piston, barrel, head, and carb.

The early 200's used 32 mm forks and the later 200's used 35 mm forks.

The manual for the 32 mm forks indicates 190 ml (6.7 oz) of 5 W oil.

The 35 mm forks use 220 ml. I run mine with 10 W oil.

Hopefully this gives you somewhere to start.

Regards,

Peter.

I drained the forks using the plug at the base. Added 190cc of oil and without a doubt they are better, but I still get an inch of un damped movement when compress the front end. More oil required? or leave as is?
