How Much Fork Oil?

Featured Replies

Help i was gonna fit new fork seals but i dont know how much oil to put back in, anyone out there know? also what grade of oil should i go for?

I`ve also noticed thst my rear tyre rubs the silencer is the tyre sizes supposed to be 400-18?

Cheers for you help,

ps on another note, should i be running this bike on synthetic 2stroke oil or just basic mineral? i`m currently using basic at a ratio of 20:1 is this ok?

Hi Goreboy,

Was wandering, are you from Gore NZ??

Go for 280ml each leg, 5 weight.

Rear tyre is fine, just push the silencer out of the way a bit, the brackets get bent when falling off. Synthetic or mineral is fine, I use 50:1 mineral 2 stroke oil without problems for many years. 20:1 is way too rich.

Bye, PeterB.

Cheers for the info, i thought 50:1 was only for synthetic and it has to be ricer for mineral based oils,

Nah i`m not from gore nz, but i get asked that quite a lot, i plan to go there one day and have my photo taken with the road sign, lol
